Three Coding Evaluations |
GitHub Account |
Create a GitHub account
- go to github.com and create an account
- send me an email from your FIU email account containing your github username
Refer to Canvas for the link to create a repo for
your first assignment.
- Experiment with python and post your work in your repo.
- Post examples from class, problem set solutions, and your own experimentations.
- Post often for maximum points.

A coding evaluation is a self-evaluation submitted by each student.
Summarize your coding contributions in GitHub for the current problem set.
I will compare your evaluation with your actual postings in GitHub and
assign a grade. If you do not submit an evaluation, you will not receive
any points for your coding contribution.
