Grading:  55%        In class points ( quizzes, tests, final, attendance)
                45%        Out of class points ( programs, homeworks )
               
                The usual 90%, 80%, 70%, totals will be used as a guideline. Final letter grades will be scaled.

Attendance:             Attendance is important. It is mandatory. It is your job to get to class and to be on-time. Do not walk into class late. I will take attendance by passing around an attendance sheet.
                                You need to make sure that you sign the sheet. Those who sign the sheet will earn 2 points. If you come in late, I may drop this down to 1 point.

                                not created a hard deliverable. Practice your math. Read a book. Write a paragraph. Work on your programming problems. You are paying or somebody is paying a lot of money for your
                                education. You can excel. Figure it out.
