Grade complaint LAST CALL
This is the last call for grading complaints about hw3-6 and
proj1-4. If your issue is with proj2, you should contact Omar.
Complaints about the other assignments should be directed to
Albert.
Make sure these are legitimate issues and not point
scrounging. For example, if you passed more than 40 tests on your
proj4, it is very unlikely something went wrong with the testing
process. Many of the issues I have already processed claimed that
their code behaved just like the oracle, but did not realize that
they did not test all the possible cache configurations comprehensively.
Please contact us even if you have already e-mailed or spoken to
us about your issue before, just in case something slipped through.
These MUST be sent by 11:59pm Saturday, Aug 16, or
we will not consider them. To help us process these in a timely
fashion, please give your e-mails good titles. Once we finish
dealing with all these, we will post final exam and final overall grades.
At that point you will not be able to submit any more grade appeals.
If you have missing labs, contact your TA.

I've posted a guide to deciphering the autograder's output here:
http://www-inst.eecs.berkeley.edu/~cs61c-tj/proj2ag/proj2_ag_output_guide.txt
I've also posted a guide to running the snprintf tests on your own
MARS for better debugging. Find it here:

Faux Midterm Exam
The "faux" midterm exam will be held today in 10 Evans from 6-9 pm.
Faux midterm (from sp2004). If you're coming tonight, don't spoil it for yourself!
If you can't make it, we will post a link to the exam here later tonight. |

Readings misalignment
Some of the readings in the calendar are not aligned properly with their corresponding lecture. I'll fix this as soon as possible, but in the meantime if a reading doesn't look like it matches the lecture topic, try looking at nearby reading assignments below or above it. |
7.14 |
Albert's OH today canceled
He will hold makeup hours tomorrow (Tuesday) from 12-1pm. |
7.13 |
Proj1 Due Date Extended
Because of some issues with the autograder, the due date
for proj1 has been extended to today, Sunday
7/13 at 11:59 pm. Any submissions before this time will be
graded out of the full possible 20 pts.
As usual, you may use one slip day max on this project and
submit by Monday 7/14 11:59 pm with no penalty. You may
also use one slip day and submit by Tuesday 7/15 11:59 to be
graded out of 2/3 the possible points.
Future assignments (i.e. hw3, proj2) will NOT be delayed to compensate for this extension. |
7.11 |
Proj1 prelim ag problem with go()
There was a problem with the autograder's go() test. It made assumptions about your project that weren't necessarily part of the spec. It is fixed now, so if you failed the go() test, try submitting again.
Also, remember that the autograder is never the last word on your project
grade. If we see tests failing when they shouldn't be, readers will regrade
manually. |
|
Proj1 preliminary autograder
The preliminary autograder is running. Results are e-mailed to your cs61c-xx account. More details on the newsgroup.
Remember that this is not the complete autograder! Even if you pass
all the tests here, it does not guarantee you will get full credit
on the assignment.
