Homework

  • Homework 2 grades were posted last week, remember, that you are permitted to revise and resubmit one assignment during the semester

  • Resubmission needs to be in within one week of receiving your grade

  • If you receive your grade late due to submission/technical issues, the 1 week count begins from when you receive the updated grade

  • You won't be able to open a new Pull Request, so after commiting your revised files just go into the existing Pull Request, post Resubmission at the bottom, and tag myself and the grader
