Final Project Due at 5:30pm on Tuesday, Aug 12 –NO LATE SUBMISSIONS ACCEPTED! The final project accounts for 25% of your final grade –The final exam is 40% and is two days later! Please submit the code electronically and print a copy to bring to class

Final Project Grading 75% for the program itself –It does what you proposal said it would. –The design of your classes. –The style of your programming, including adherence to coding conventions. –The readability of the code, including meaningful variable names and good use of comments throughout.

Final Project Grading 10% for documentation –a "README" file which describes all of the classes in your program, what they do, how they relate to each other, and why you made the design decisions that you did the README file should also contain a UML diagram of your classes and their relationships –a one page user manual for your application that describes how to run your program and how to use it

Final Project Grading 15% for robustness and testing –The program should not crash when given invalid inputs from the user –Every public method in your program should have an assert statement that checks that all input parameters are within legal bounds –You must write a complete set of unit tests for all non-trivial public methods in every class –The README file must also describe the system testing that you performed

Final Project Presentation In class on Tuesday, August minutes or so describing what the program does, the classes you created, how they relate to each other, and why you made the design decisions that you did 2-3 minute demo of your program Volunteers only! (You may be volunteered)

Important Dates Aug 12 –Final Project due (no extensions!!) –Final Project presentations in class (optional) Aug 14 –Final exam (no makeup exam!)
