Course questions and post on CP

Don;t laugh too hard - we've had a couple of "teachers" trying to get solutions before they start marking... :sigh:
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...
Oh come on, I only did that the once :laugh:

Wow, I did not know this kind of punishment were still legal nowadays. :rolleyes:
It was phased out with the Cat o Nine Tails, except for VB issues
You cant outrun the world, but there is no harm in getting a head start Real stupidity beats artificial intelligence every time.

Does anyone who posts their assignments on here hoping to get them done for them ever consider that the examiners might also look here? And if they do will they fail them for basically cheating (my lecturers would have certainly "F"ed me for such behaviour)

Then there was the teacher who asked his students to post their solutions as articles here and that votes would be part of their grade. :omg:

Wouldn't mind having one of those - save a lot of work on the hills.

I'm going to need a new boilerplate text: "We do not set your homework, it is set for a reason..." :laugh:

Any lecturer\prof worth their salt will probably know when people are cheating anyway. If you ask random "pros" on the net chances are you'll get answers using techniques etc not covered on the course, or things might just look too "good" in general. When I was at uni anyway we'd be asked questions about our code if they suspected cheating. This was back in the day when people used gopher rather than google, and cheating was done by undeleting the projects of other students from the uni hard drives rather than asking people for solutions on the net. They'd ask probing questions about why certain decisions were made, why things were done a certain way. And besides, do you really think these people care? Anyone stupid enough to pursue a career in programming who can't even google is stupid enough to think that they can get good grades by cheating. What annoys me more than students are the ones who obviously work in code-farms who have neither the aptitude nor ability for the job, they just want the money, and any time they are given a task they just beg and plead for other people to do their job for them. They don't want to *learn* the job either, they just want you to "give me the code". Trying to get a free ride through life on the backs of others. On any forum I look at I'd say easily 80-90% of threads are started by these people. It's a joy when you find someone that just wants to learn, and can learn, and just needs a push in the right direction where they then flesh out the code themselves.

There was a thread about Help or Code Vampires the other day. Perhaps these people could be classified as "Code Leeches" or just plain old burger flippers... :-)

I don't think so, if it was they would have tried to "F" him anytime it was feasible :-D
