Homework Guidelines:
Homework is due by 5 pm on the due date. You can turn it in to
the TAs during class or in the drop-box outside Professor Khatib's office (Gates
144). Anything handed in after 5 pm on the due date will be penalized by 30% for each 24 hours of lateness.
In order to receive a grade at the end of the course, all homework must have been handed in. All homework is to be done individually.
If you have any homework problems, you are urged to bring your questions to the professor or the TA.
- Show your work -- you'll get no credit
for answers without explanations.
- Circle / Highlight your answers -- if we
can't find your answers, we can't grade your assignment.
- Write legibly -- if we can't
read your name or your answers, we can't grade your assignment.
- Staple pages -- if pages go missing, we
can't grade your assignment.
- Use common sense for decimals -- if the
question states a = 1.34, then don't give answers like 2*a =
2.680001245735. If your solution contains fractions, square roots etc., do not convert them into decimals until the "last" possible step.
