Weekly
PSets | There are weekly
online problem sets (psets), posted on the website most Wednesdays,
which are due at midnight the following wednesday (we'll let that
deadline slide to 6 am the following Thursday morning in keeping
with MIT tradition). Solutions will be available after the due date
once you have submitted the assignment online.
Some of the problems will involve writing Python code
(functions), so be sure to leave time to debug your implementation
before the due date. There is a 10-minute checkoff interview each
week, which you must complete with your assigned staff member within
five days after the assignment is due (i.e., by the end of Monday).
The staff member will be in touch with you about the protocol for
scheduling these interviews.
After grading, your score and any comments from the grader can be
viewed online by browsing the pset.
We'll use the 6.02
piazza forum for Q&A and other discussions regarding the PSets
and the course. Please sign up, and check that page regularly.
You must complete the interview for each pset as a prerequisite
for passing the course. A missing interview will result in a
failing grade; incompletes will not be given for missing
interviews.
Late policy: Your grade will be multiplied by 0.5 for late
submissions or checkoffs. You can extend the submission deadline,
avoiding the late penalty, for up to two psets during the term --
see your onlines Grades page. Note that all extensions must be
resolved by the last day of classes.
If you have a note from Student Support Services, please see your
TA. For all other circumstances (interview trips, sporting
events, performances, overwork, etc.) you may use your extensions.
Collaboration policy: The assignments are intended to help
you understand the material and should be done individually. You're
welcome to get help from other students and the course staff
but the work you hand in must be your own. Copying another
person's work or allowing your work to be copied by others is a
serious academic offense and will be treated as such. We do
spot-check your submissions for infractions of the collaboration
policy so please don't tempt fate by submitting someone else's work as
your own; it will save us all a lot of grief.
