    And then the statement that you will get the maximum number of points. I guarantee all of my teachers would have deducted points for not commenting on this code. [EDIT]Hmm. Threading not working again as I replied to Wjousts post but it seems to favor this post. I did this twice with the same result...[/EDIT]

    In my class, I enforce comments on my students. There needs to be some, so anyone can have a good idea of what is going on in the code (me and the student when he/she looks at it in the future assignments). One comment here and there spread over several different files just doesn't cut it in my gradebook :rolleyes:

      Yeah, it's obviously a magnet for morons. It just depresses me that they're able to stay in business. I wonder where the work is done, given that it's only $20 an hour. I guess it could be done by other CS students, who actually work. $20 an hour is good money for a student, I'd have tho Better than you'd get from McDonalds.

      Yeah but maybe it's a good place to redirect all those who post homework questions here on CP with subject lines like "URGENT!" :laugh:

        No, not complex, more complex than the other example. Certainly complex enough to warrant more comments.

            Totally. I think complexity of an algorithm or code is based on how knowledgeable a programmer is about the problem at hand. Sure a first year student may find it tough, but a person like me with a Master's in Computer Science and 15+ years industry experience wouldn't find it complex at all. It's in the eye of the beholder kind of thing :-D

              From the FAQ Q. Do you support plagiarism? A. Of course not. We will provide you with a well-written sample solution to any problem that you send us, but it's your responsibility to put the effort to learn from it and do your assignments on your own. What do you make of that? Sometimes I answer questions on the C# programming forum just to give an example that the poster can hopefully learn from in writing their own solution. Could that be what they're doing? Or is it more likely that students are simply passing along the solutions as their own without putting in "the effort to learn from it"?

                    I think the way this would work would be to have an entire collection of software problems already solved, and to be able to dish them out on request, then there is really no work for most of the questions that would come in. Like someone else already said, 20 dollars an hour would be great for a student of someone like that, but not an experienced developer.
