Algorithms

There is only one compulsory tick for Algorithms 2. Submission will be on Moodle.

• Compulsory tick: max-flow (due 12noon on 13 March)

There are also several optional ticks and challenges, listed under the course materials tab. Several optional ticks have been added this year in response to student feedback that asked for more coding exercises. Some of them are linked to questions on the example sheets, so you can check that your answers are actually correct. They're a great way to solidify your understanding of the material! The challenges are more open-ended, and will be discussed in class.

There is a Q&A forum on Moodle where you can ask questions about the ticks.

Assessment

The compulsory tick forms part of your final grade for the year, as per the departmental marking scheme and the guidance about deadlines and extensions. I expect that nearly all students will complete the compulsory tick. To complete it, you must pass the Moodle tester by the deadline listed above.

Ticks are based on an honour code. You are welcome to discuss the problems with your fellow students, or with your supervisor, but you MUST implement your code yourself and you MUST be able to explain how it works. The lecturer will randomly select some further students for a viva.
