Introduction to Computer Science I for non-majors by James Tam |
Your score | Max score | ||
Coding style (marks may be awarded independent of program functionality) |
|||
Appropriate use of white space (source code) | 2 | ||
Self-documenting variable, constant and function names. | 3 | ||
Use of named constants as appropriate | 2 | ||
Boolean and mathematical expressions are simple and easy to read | 4 | ||
Fewer than 3 functions written | -4 (two functions) -10 (one function) (See point below if no functions used) |
||
Parameter passing not used in functions written by the student | -4 | ||
Function return values not used in functions written by the student (unless a logical alternative such as pass by reference is employed - don't worry if you don't know the latter term yet, it comes up later) | -4 | ||
Penalty: no functions employed in the assignment (no functions written by student, no parameter passing, no return values in student defined functions): maximum grade point that can be awarded is 2.3 regardless of other style and functionality considerations. | |||
Penalty: Global variables employed | No penalty this time but indicate in future assignments marks will be lost unless globals explicitly allowed for the assignment | ||
Penalty: functions aren't written according to principles taught in lecture (decomposition notes slide #70 - 71) | No penalty this time, this requirement will be applied with other assignments | ||

Documentation (marks may be awarded independent of program functionality) |
|||
Header documentation contains overall description of program. | 1 | ||
Some form of versioning system is demonstrated in the header documentation | 1 | ||
Provides a list of the specific program features that were implemented | 1 | ||
Lists the program limitations | 1 | ||
Each function documented (see decomposition notes slide #68 for details) | 3 | ||
Penalty: Name and tutorial section not included at top of program | -4 | ||

Mantissa correct when number 5 digits or less* | 4 | ||
Mantissa correct when number exceeds 5 digits* | 8 | ||
Exponent sign correct* | 2 | ||
