As I understood it the list policy is:
1) not solve homework problems.
2) request students to tell us exactly what problems they were
running into
e.g. expected output, actual output, exceptions, ...
3) then give specific suggestions
We seem to have violated that policy in this case.
Can we in agreement on the policy?
So far as I know the policy remains as it always was Bob.
I also prefer list posts to be in plain text rather than various
fonts, sizes and colors.
I haven't had that problem. They are all in plain text whenI get them,
but thats probably my mail/news reader settings
I think that assignment is very poorly worded!
I agree, the recommended sequence to solve is not great,
but it's better than some homework assignments I've seen
posted here.
Why the busywork of coming up with 100 real dates. What does that
have to do with programming?
Agreed, thats just silly. Unless the course is also trying to teach
research skills!
