Versiunea din 12 mai 2014 09:42, autor: Radu Hobincu (Discuție | contribuții) (Homework - 2014)

The Data Structures and Algorithms course is based on knowledge gained from the Computer Programming course in the first semester, and its role is to provide the base for algorithmic thinking, problem solving and advanced computer programming skills.

Homework - 2014

  1. DSA Homework 1 - soft deadline: 13.03.2014, 23:59, hard deadline: 27.03.2014, 23:59 - Results
  2. DSA Homework 2 - soft deadline: 27.03.2014, 23:59, hard deadline: 10.04.2014, 23:59 - Results
  3. DSA Homework 3 - soft deadline: 10.04.2014, 23:59, hard deadline: 24.04.2014, 23:59 - Results
  4. DSA Homework 4 - soft deadline: 24.04.2014, 23:59, hard deadline: 08.05.2014, 23:59
  5. DSA Homework 5 - soft deadline: 08.05.2014, 23:59, hard deadline: 22.05.2014, 23:59
  6. DSA Homework 6 - hard deadline: 22.05.2014, 23:59

Homework submitted after the soft deadline will only receive half the credit. Homework submitted after the hard deadline will receive no credit.

Information: There is a general programming course starting on Coursera on the 2nd of June. I recommend taking it in order for you to practice concepts and learn a new programming language. Python is widely spread and really useful for you to know.

Deliverables

Submissions must include one or more C source files, compilable with GCC version 4.8.0 or greater, and a .txt document (NOT a doc/ docx or pdf file) including the algorithm description and a short analysis of the complexity.

Submission

Homework will be submitted via e-mail at address homework@dcae.pub.ro.

The e-mail subject MUST follow the following template: [DSA]<your_name> - <your_group> - <homework #>. E.g.: [DSA]Radu Hobincu - 421G - 1

The e-mail body should contain any comments you wish to make on the homework.

The e-mail attachments should consist of at least two files: one or more C source files, having a .c extension, and a text file, having a .txt extension, containing the algorithm description and analysis.

NOTE: The arrival time of the e-mail is considered as the submission time, so make sure you submit some time before the deadline.
