PROGRAMMING STYLE1

 

Actual mark

Max
Naming conventions     Poor -2  Some poorly named identifiers +0   Good and clear throughout +2   2
Code layout (alignment, formatting, whitespace)     Very cluttered, no whitespace -2 Slightly too much/too little +0 Appropriate use of whitespace: +2   2

Appropriate use of named constants             1
Each method implements one well defined task Never -4 Seldom +1 Sometimes +2 Usually +3 Always +4   4

DOCUMENTATION1

  

 

 

Actual mark

Max
Header documentation. 'Driver' class (Program limitations)   1
Header documentation. 'Driver' class (Program versioning)   1
Header documentation. 'Driver' class (Assignment features implemented)   8
Header documentation. All classes other than the Driver   4
Missing contact information in submission (name and student number). Other marks will be granted only if we can determine authorship   -4
TOTAL: DOCUMENTATION   14
     
     

PROGRAM FUNCTIONALITY2

    
  Actual mark Max
Program runs and displays the controls in the prescribed fashion (like the picture!)   9
Program can load the information from the starting file (number of contacts isn't fixed to the file size)   9
The information for the list of contacts is automatically saved when window is closed   9
The user can remove a contact using the remove button   12
The user can add a contact using the add button   12
The user can add a contact by pressing enter in the text field   12
The title bar displays appropriate feedback when a contact is removed   9
The title bar displays appropriate feedback when a contact is added   9
The title bar displays an appropriate  sign off message when the window is closed   4
The program won't add an empty contact to the list, error message displayed   6
At least one layout class is used to make the layout appear in the prescribed fashion   9

TOTAL RAW SCORE FOR ASSIGNMENT

   129

1 May be awarded independently of program functionality (i.e., when the program won't run).

2 These marks will only be awarded if the correctness of implementation can be determined as the program is running.

 

DESIGN REQUIREMENTS (may modify the raw score)

Item

Effect on grade
Uses static methods (other than the main method) Divide functionality marks by two1
Program consists of only a single class: Divide functionality marks by two1
Functionality not assigned to the appropriate class as specified in the assignment description Max loss of 8 marks (tallied after the above two modifiers, if applicable)

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.
