Please do all assignments on time as each week is dependent on previous weeks' work. If there is an emergency or you are sick, please contact me ahead of time.
The course outline page may change throughout the semester. Depending on how the course is going, I may switch weeks around or remove or add topics.
Yes, unless I tell you that a project/assignment is a group assignment. Discussing ideas is OK, but all coding/work should be done separately.
I will have in-person office hours. Please see the syllabus for the time. If that does not work for your schedule, I am also available on Zoom by appointment. Also, feel free to email me. I usually respond to emails within 24 hours.
If you use these technologies such as ChatGPT, you must use them ethically and disclose in the assignment that you used it and how you used it. All work needs to be your own. For example, no chatgpt, codex, etc. No asking any AI to generate or fix SQL code. However, you can use AI for learning such ask asking "In SQL, explain what a HAVING clause does?" which is not about a specific assignment.
