[To get the full credit of your programming assignment, find the problem solving steps and
documentation guidelines listed in ‘Programming Assignments’ section in D2L. You are supposed
to submit a zip file (don’t use winrar to zip) that should contain a documentation file like a docx
file and your codes with proper programming extensions like .java or .py. Make sure all of your
code is compliable or no runtime error.TA will not grade you if your code is not runnable and get
a zero]
