You may complete the tasks in your preferred IDE, however you MUST create a Visual Studio OR Visual Studio Code project in order to submit. Your project folder must be identified by using your name and assignment number,such as YourNameA1.

The entire project folder must then be zipped up into one zip file for submission. The zipped file MUST be named “A1-YourFirstNameLastName.zip” – do not include anything else! This zip file must be submitted via the Moodle assignment submission page.

Explicit assessment criteria are provided, however please note you will also be assessed on the following broad criteria:

NOTE! Your submitted program MUST compile and run. Any submission that does not compile will automatically be awarded a ZERO. This means it is your responsibility to continually compile and test your code as you build it.

NOTE! Your submitted files must be correctly identified and submitted (as described above). Any submission that does not comply will receive and automatic 10% penalty (applied after marking).
