SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS

Item

Effect on grade
Java source code files not submitted together in a zip file 4 marks lost
Uses static methods (other than the main method) Divide program functionality marks by two (rounded down)1
Program consists of only a single class: Divide program functionality marks by two (rounded down)1

1 These two penalties are cumulative so if a program was written using only one class and was full of static methods then the student's program functionality mark would quartered.
