Priorities for Submitting or Handing Off Code
- Your JAVA (source) files are generally the most important files.
- Verify that all JAVA files compile successfully..
- Verify your expected filenames and directory names are correct.
- Verify the case (upper/lower) in your filenames, directory names, and code (e.g. class names, method names, etc) is correct.
- Be extra sure your object construction methods (constructors, other) are correct. Otherwise the user/grader won't even be able to construct your object which would result in a low score.
- Make sure your ZIP file (to be submitted) is named correctly. See this....
- Make sure packages are correct (see notes below)
Notes On Packages
A package line is one line near the top of a JAVA file, that looks something like this:
package foo;
If an assignment does not call for packages, then make sure your JAVA files do not have a package line. Otherwise, the package line will break the grader's grading tools, resulting in a low score.
packages -- when used
If an assignment does call for packages make sure they are correct, including case sensitive spelling
