Submission Details

Projects and Theoretical Excercises can be submitted only electronically. The assignment solutions have to be scanned in clear and easily readable quality. Moreover the deliverable must be in PDF format (one file per student per set of exercises) and must contain your details (name, surname, student number, login). The name of the deliverable for each of the two sets of exercises is assignment<number> where <number> is the serial number of each exercise. The name of the deliverable to each of the two phases of programming tasks is project<number> where <number> is the number of each phase. Submit the exercises to the account of the course hy486. Below you can find the commands that shall be used to submit each one of the four sets of theoretical exercises:

  • turnin assignment1@hy486 <dir>
  • turnin assignment2@hy486 <dir>

Below you can find the commands that shall be used to submit each one of the two parts of the project:

  • turnin project1@hy486 <dir>
  • turnin project2@hy486 <dir>

where <dir> is the folder that contains all the deliverable files. The turnin program does not recognize compressed files and as a result the files for delivery shall not be binary / compressed / gzipped. More information about the turnin program can be found here.

In order for the TAs to be able to organize the oral exams of the project phases and assign the corresponding number of examination time slots, students must submit their solutions to the project at least once before the project advertised due date even if they intend to re-submit them in the next days (during which the penalty applies - see FAQ). The grading will be based on the last set of submission files.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)


1. Can I submit late assignments;
Each assignment must be turned in before the respective due date and time in order to be subject to be marked with full marks. Nevertheless you can submit an assignment for the next three days past the deadline, having as a penalty half mark (out of ten) for each late day. Exceptionally good assignments may be marked with a grade greater than 10.

2. Can I re-submit an already submitted exercise;
You can execute the turnin commands any number of times for each assignment (inside the aforementioned deadlines). The system stores all your submissions with the respective numbering. Your grading will be performed based on the files you submitted the last time you executed the submit commands.

3. Can I submit seperately the different sub-questions of an exercise;
No, all your answers to all the assignment's questions must be present inside the folder of the assignment when you execute the submit commands.
