Submission


Always, always, ALWAYS update the header comments at the top of your main.cpp file. And if you ever get stuck, remember that there is LOTS of help available. The following instructions are copied from How to Submit Homework.


It is critical that you follow these steps when submitting homework.

If you do not follow these instructions, your assignment will receive a major deduction. Why all the fuss? Because we have several hundred of these assignments to grade, and we use computer tools to automate as much of the process as possible. If you deviate from these instructions, our grading tools will not work. And that makes us very unhappy. And when we're unhappy, we give penalties. Thus, make us happy.


Submission Instructions



Here are step-by-step instructions for submitting your homework properly:
  1. File and folder names are extremely important in this process. Please double-check carefully, to ensure things are named correctly.
    1. The top-level folder of your project must be named Set9
    2. Inside Set9, create 2 sub-folders that are required for this Set. The name of each sub-folder is defined in that Set (e.g. L9A, and A9).
    3. Copy your main.cpp , additional header & source files, plus the CMakeLists.txt file into the subdirectories of Set9 (steps 1-2), zip this Set9 folder (steps 3-4), and then submit the zipped file (steps 5-11) to Canvas.
    4. For example, when you zip/submit Set9, there will be 2 sub-folders called L9A, and A9 inside the Set9 folder, and each of these sub-folders will have a file called main.cpp, additional header & source files, plus the CMakeLists.txt file .

  2. Using Windows Explorer (not to be confused with Internet Explorer), find the file named "main.cpp" located inside the folder for the particular lab or homework assignment you will submit.

    STOP: Are you really sure you are viewing the correct assignment's folder?

  3. Now, for A9, right click on the main.cpp to copy the file. Then, return to the Set9/A9 folder and right click to paste the file. In other words, put a copy of your homework's main.cpp source code into the Set9/A9 folder. Repeat this for each additional header & source file you have with this assignment, plus CMakeLists.txt.

    Follow the same steps for L9A, to put a copy of your lab's main.cpp into the Set9/L9A folder.

    STOP: Are you sure your Set9 folder now has all your code to submit?

  4. Now, right-click on the "Set9" folder.
    1. In the pop-up menu that opens, move the mouse "Send to..." and expand the sub-menu.
    2. In the sub-menu that opens, select "Compressed (zipped) folder".

    STOP: Are you really sure you are zipping a Set9 folder with sub-folders that each contain a main.cpp file in it?

  5. After the previous step, you should now see a "Set9.zip" file.

  6. Now visit the Canvas page for this course and click the "Assignments" button in the sidebar.

  7. Find Set9, click on it, find the "Submist Assignment" area, and then click the "Choose File" button.

  8. Find the "Set9.zip" file created earlier and click the "Open" button.

    STOP: Are you really sure you are selecting the right homework assignment? Are you double-sure?

  9. WAIT! There's one more super-important step. Click on the blue "Submit Assignment" button to submit your homework.

  10. No, really, make sure you click the "Submit Assignment" button to actually submit your homework. Clicking the "Choose File" button in the previous step kind of makes it feel like you're done, but you must click the Submit button as well! And you must allow the file time to upload before you turn off your computer!

  11. Canvas should say "Submitted!". Click "Submission Details" and you can download the zip file you just submitted. In other words, verify you submitted what you think you submitted!
In summary, you must zip the "Set9" folder and only the "Set9" folder, this zip folder must have several sub-folders, you must name all these folders correctly, you must submit the correct zip file for this homework, and you must click the "Submit Assignment" button. Not doing these steps is like bringing your homework to class but forgetting to hand it in. No concessions will be made for incorrectly submitted work. If you incorrectly submit your homework, we will not be able to give you full credit. And that makes us unhappy.
