Submission Format
Submissions must be in the correct file format to be accepted for grading.
- Standard ZIP format (.zip) is the only archive format accepted. No .rar files,
no 7Zip files, etc.
- Microsoft WORD format (.docx, .doc), or plain HTML (.html) and TEXT
(.txt) are the only formats accepted for text assignments. No PDF
files, etc. Free software is available to produce each of these
file formats. I will not accept other formats for credit. (Note: a plain
text file can easily be turned into a .html file using the <pre> tag.)
- All Java program submission files must be copied to a file with an additional .txt file
extension added to the end of the file name to make them acceptable as input to the plagiarism
checker. Example:
JokeServer.java would be copied (without ANY changes!) to JokeServer.java.txt for
submimssion to D2L. After the TII plagiarism-checking stage we will rename your file back to .java
again, compile the .java version, and run it.
- Java code submissions are typically a SINGLE .java file, with NO PACKAGE STATEMENTS. But your source
code will often generate multiple .class files.
- Java code submissions will often have a log file, and a postings file, included at the bottom, as
Java comments.
- Turn It In reports: When TII plagiarism checking is active, you must have a report generated for
your submission. In the rare case you do not, then edit your source code by adding a couple of blank
lines at the top of your file, and at the bottom of your file. Additionally you may need to remove any
special characters appearing in your code.
