Rules & Regulations

[Admin]

The newsgroup is a public forum, so a few guidelines have been set over the years to ensure that
the newsgroup is used productively in its intended form.
1. Do NOT post anything that is demeaning and illogical. This prevents productive work
from occurring.
2. Do NOT post in any language that is not standardly used in this University. (Any language
that anyone does not understand is strictly rude).
3. DO post any questions you have regarding assignments and course topics.
4. DO post CORRECT help to any relevant questions on the newsgroup.
5. Do NOT help others too much. (E.g., Do NOT post any type of solutions or code.
Complete code and code fragments fall into this category).
6. DO read the newsgroup before any post. Someone might have already asked the same
question or a hint may have already been provided.
7. Do NOT post anything that is irrelevant to the course (say an invitation to a campus-wide
party at your place this Friday).
8. DO be polite. It helps when trying to ask for help.
9. DO contact the tutors (aruz_sdc@live.com) if you have a question that may be
too specic. Otherwise for general questions, do post to the newsgroup.
