Homework policy:
The homework submitted must be written by yourself independently, without looking at anybody else's solutions. You may discuss the problems with fellow students taking the class, teaching assistants, and the instructor. If you collaborate, you must acknowledge clearly, at the beginning of each problem, the people you discussed with on that problem. You are expected to fully understand every single step of the solution, and must write up the solutions by yourself independently.
More generally, students are expected to adhere to the Student Disciplinary policy of the Computer Science Department; this policy can be found in full here. Please contact the instructor with any questions.
