Project Info:
 

• C++  or Java are to be used  for the programming projects.
• The projects are to be developed using the MS Visual C++ (Ver 6.0 or 5.0) / JDK compiler and under Unix or MS Windows NT / 95 / 98.  For more details see the project guidelines.
• The grading of the programming projects will be based on two aspects: correctness and style.  The correctness of the programs will be worth 60% of the total grade.  The program must pass all test cases in order to obtain all the points in this category.   The second aspect, style is worth 40% of the total grade. In order to obtain all points here, it is strongly recommended that one follow the Computer Science department's Elements of Good Programming Style handout.  This can be obtained at the URL http://ei.cs.vt.edu/~cs2604/Standards/Standards.html.
• The test data for the projects will be posted on the web site in advance.
• The projects can be submitted to any of the GTAs in person during their office hours.
