  2. Announcements • Lab 7 due • Program 4 early code check due Wednesday, November 19, 11:59pm

  3. Questions?

  4. Today in COMP 110 • Extra credit policy • Calculating your grade • Program 4

  5. Extra credit policy on assignments • Points on Program 4 back to what they were • Back to what you were probably expecting

  6. Extra credit policy on assignments • More explicitly: • Assignments are worth 60% of your semester grade • This is calculated by: • int totalPoints = total number of points on assignments, including extra credit; • int possiblePoints = total number of points on assignments, excluding extra credit; • double assignmentGrade = ((double) totalPoints / (double) possiblePoints) * 60.0; • Your assignment grade will be assignmentGrade%

  7. Extra credit policy on assignments • There are 505 possible points on assignments, excluding extra credit • There are 60 (+ a some more from Program 4’s first extra credit opportunity) possible extra credit points on assignments

  8. Examples • If you got all of the regular points on the assignments, your assignment grade would be: • (505.0/505.0) * 60.0%, or 60.0% • If you got all of the regular points AND all of the extra credit, your assignment grade would be: • (565.0/505.0) * 60.0%, or 67.13%

  9. Calculating your grade • Remember from first class: • Assignments 60% • Midterm 15% • Final 20% • Participation 5% • Your grade: (yourAssignmentPoints/totalRegularAssignmentPoints) * 60.0% + (midtermGrade/100.0) * 15.0% + (finalExamGradePoints/finalExamPointsPossible) * 20.0% + participation%

  10. Grade ranges • 90 <= A <= 100+ • 80 <= B < 90 • 70 <= C < 80 • 60 <= D < 70 • 0 <= F < 60 • There may also be + and – grades in these ranges. • If your percentage falls in a particular range, I will guarantee that you will get that grade or higher if there is a curve

  11. Program 4: Battleship • Work out your algorithm for part 2 of Program 4 (on paper or just type it up) • Type up your algorithm and email it to me before Monday’s class • I will email you feedback
