Policy

Regrading

It's important to check your assignment grade after the quiz, to make sure your assignment has been graded correctly by the autograder. The autograder is not perfect, and it's also easy to make submission mistakes.

If you notice anything unexpected -- usually a zero when you thought you'd completed the assignment properly -- please make a regrading request via private message on Piazza.

Grades will be published on CourSys (coursys.sfu.ca/2026su-cmpt-201-d1) when they become available.

Imporant note! Our regrading policy will differ slightly from the one outlined in the common course info page. Your TA may ask you to bring the computer with your docker instance to check directly, or they may complete the regrade using the code in the GitHub repository.

Policy Exceptions

If you have an unexpected medical issue or life event which is interfering with your ability to complete the coursework, please contact the instructor, Jianliang, directly by email at wujl@sfu.ca. Note the course number (and if you're not using your SFU email, your legal name or student ID number), and briefly explain the situation, as soon as you can reasonably anticipate problems.

It's your right and your responsibility to advocate for yourself, and we won't judge you for asking for help. We'll do our best to help you with accommodations or at least advice, and to be clear and honest about what we will, won't, or can't do.
