All class work is to be done independently. You may discuss homework problems and general solution strategies with classmates, but no written communication (by paper, on chalkboards, by email, etc.) is permitted. Instances of academic dishonesty will be dealt with harshly.
As a courtesy to the grader, homeworks are to be written neatly. Poorly written work will not be graded. When writing algorithms be sure not only that your solution is correct, but also that it is easy for the grader to understand why your solution is correct. Part of your grade will be based not only on correctness, but also on the simplicity, clarity, and elegance of your solutions. The burden of the proof of correctness of your algorithms is on you.
