Assignment Due Tomorrow (Aug 5, 16:59) – Final Checks Reminder

Posted by Tim Arney Tuesday 04 August 2026, 06:37:04 PM.

Just a gentle reminder that the large assignment is due tomorrow (Wednesday, 5 August) at 16:59.

After making your final submission, please take a moment to verify that you have included all files required to compile your program. You can view the files in your most recent submission by running:

9024 classrun -check assn

You can also retrieve your submission with:

9024 classrun -fetch assn

This will create a directory in your home folder containing your submitted files. Change into that directory and run:

9024 dryrun flynet

to confirm that your program compiles and runs as expected.

We strongly recommend completing these checks as early as possible to minimise any risk of late penalties, and certainly before the 5-day late submission window closes on Monday, 10 August at 16:59. After this time, you will not be able to update your submission, and any programs that do not compile (e.g. due to missing files) will fail all auto-testing.

Please also note that a bug in dryrun was fixed on 17 July 2026 (17:13), as recorded in the spec changelog. Ensure your program has been tested against the updated dryrun and is passing tests since this fix.

Get exam-ready!

Dear Students,

Make sure you are exam ready!

• You need a physical ID card to sit your final exams on campus. Electronic IDs will not be accepted. Your UNSW student ID card, driver's licence or passport will be scanned at the exam venue as part of a new attendance checking process.
  • If you are unable to provide a physical ID card, you may not be able to sit your final exam. You can go to the Student Hub and get a new or replacement student ID card. New ID cards and replacements for expired cards are free; the cost of a replacement student card is $25. The Student Hub is NOT open on Saturdays.
• Prepare for your Inspera exam on campus:
  Student info invigilated exams PDF
• Ensure you know when and where your exam is:
  Understanding your exam timetable PDF
• And, most importantly, ensure that you have the correct SEB versions (these are different from last Term):
  SEB for Mac (version 3.5.4)
  SEB for Windows (version 3.10.0) *

* For Windows – your device can only have one correct SEB version installed. You will need to uninstall the incorrect SEB version prior to the exam.

During the Term 2 2026 final exam session, an onsite IT Helpdesk will be available to support students from Friday 14 August to Wednesday 26 August . Find it in the John Niland Scientia Building Foyer, G19 on the Campus Map. No booking required!

Dear Students,

The myExperience Survey is now open. Please fill myExperience survey as it gives us an opportunity to see course and teaching from students' perspectives. Your honest and constructive thoughts are valued, and help not only students taking this course, but myself and teaching staff across UNSW to create positive changes in their courses moving forward. Your thoughts also make a difference for the next group of students taking these courses, just as thoughts from students taking courses you plan to take make a difference for you.
