As one of the students in the MW section pointed out, the syllabus says homework need not be submitted. Because a significant portion of the class are not doing the homework on their own, I'm changing that policy. From now on, please submit your homework to CSNS. 

 

Since the homework assignments are the same for both sections, they are listed in the joint section, section 3. Please submit your homework there. Thank you.

It applies to both classes. The M-W class did not do very well on their work.

It applies to work due 9/7 and later. You get a pass on the first two assignments -- that is a pass on submitting them, not on doing them. That is still expected.

Last class we were meant to work on the cartpole problem over the weekend and submit it. So would this be the one due for 9/5 or are we also expected to turn in the MDPs work for 9/5? (M/W class)

Yesterday the Saturday class discussed assignment 2,  the cartpole problem and Silver's Intro to RL. The saturday class is now done with that assignment and should be working on assignment 3, MDPs.

The MW class will discuss assignment 2 this coming week. (Recall, that the Saturday class always goes first. Is that too confusing? If so, I can change it.) So the MW class should submit their cartpole solution before class Wednesday. (Normally the MW class submits assignments before class Monday. But this week Monday is a holiday.) The MW class will begin working on assignment 3 after class Wednesday. The homework will be due by the following Sunday.

In summary, the MDP assignment (assignment 3) is  due 9/7 for the Saturday class and 9/9 for the MW class. In general the assignments listed under section 3 apply to both classes. The listed due date is for the Saturday class, because they come first. The due date for the MW class is two days later.

Due dates on CSNS don't reflect when assignments are due. Says assignment 2 is past due for MW class

That's a problem with two sections. The CartPole problem is now open until 9:30 tomorrow.

Earlier you said turning stuff in only counts starting 9/7 and now we need to turn in assignment 2? I'm confused...
