Program Internal Documentation

3 to >2.0 pts

Advanced

Internal comments are sufficient in all files within the program to describe the program’s logic, the meaning of the variables, and the overall purpose of each file, function, and class. The program contains a comment at the top of the driver file that indicates the student’s name, assignment number, and a brief description of the purpose of the program.

2 to >1.0 pts

Proficient

Internal comments are present, but they are not sufficient to describe the logic of the program, the meaning of the variables, or the overall purpose of each file, function, and class; OR The program does not contain a comment at the top of the driver file that indicates the student’s name, assignment number, and a brief description of the purpose of the program.

1 to >0.0 pts

Developing

Comments in the code are minimal and do not contain the student’s name, assignment number, and description of the purpose of the program.

Style of code 12 to >10.0 pts

Advanced

Program is modular. It contains no global variables unless they are constants. Adheres to the principles of minimalization and least privilege: Constants are used where appropriate; variables are declared with the proper level of access (for classes only); only variables that are needed are created; and program uses the correct data structure (array, vector, etc.) for the assignment.

10 to >8.0 pts

Proficient

Program is minimally modular. At most one global variable is declared; at most one variable is declared with the incorrect level of access; at most one variable is declared which should not be used; or the program uses an incorrect data structure for the assignment.

8 to >0.0 pts

Developing

Program is not modular (i.e. everything is contained within main()); multiple global variables are used; more than one variable is declared which should not be present; or the program uses an incorrect data structure for the assignment.
