Regarding code comment check in P1 Marking

[Irene Huang]

I would like to clarify how the code comment check is done in P1. The TAs
do manually check the code comments of the program. How many comments
you have put into your program is only one aspect when the TA is marking the
code comment. The quality of the comments is a more important aspect which
is checked manually. So we do not see the way how code comment is checked
by the marking software as a bug, it is a process to provide the TA more
information in helping them with manual marking of the code comments.

It needs to be pointed out that the marking is not 100% automatic. Some
manual marking work is needed from the TAs. The TAs are required to
manually check marking reports (the ones sent to your engmail account)
generated and make adjustment of the marks according to his/her own
discretion.

If you have more questions/feedback on the marking software for P1, please
contact me.

Hello,

I was just wondering where these marking reports are... I haven't seen
mine in my engmail email yet so I have found it very tough to accept the
mark that I have received on this project. If possible, could you please
let me/us know where to find this report or if it has been emailed yet?
Thank you very much.

I certainly understand the feeling some of you have regarding the marks
and marking reports.

The marking report is sent to your ***@engmail.uwaterloo.ca mailbox. The
report shows details in what tests have been run and where marks have been
deducted. Qi He is responsible for sending out these reports and I believe
he has started doing sending them. If you still do not get the report
early next week, do notify Qi or me, so that we can take further action on
this issue.

Thank you for your understanding,
