Your electronically submitted files (soft-copies) are checked 
semi-automatically.

Your files are compiled and run against sample input automatically, but 
the 
output is checked manually, not using diff.

Points aren't taken off for differences from sample program output, as 
long 
as those differences are reasonable.

It's up to us to decide what is reasonable, but here are a few examples 
of 
things that are\were tolerated:

1) Differences in white spaces, new line location, capitalization, 
wording, 
etc. are accepted.

2) If you handle MIKREI KATSE neglected by the sample program  that's 
fine 
(even good!). You don't have to make an effort to imitate a segmentation 
fault.

3) In the first exercises, transposed division table and differently 
order 
list of 8-queens boards were accepted.



The reason for that is that we believe you have to concentrate on the 
important things, not spend hours on matching the sample output.



IMPORTANT: do note, however, that we DO PENALTY for BAD FILE NAMES, 
BADLY 
TARRED FILES, and obviously NON-COMPILING FILES, as these things make 
our 
semi-automatic check fail.



Good luck.
