Hello Mr Starbini,

I am sorry that I am very angry and frustrated right now! I passed all the tests in HW2 REQUIRED and I got 34 in total, however after the secret tests my mark reduced to 25 in my profile, but in the PDF that  you uploaded I got 0 True. I have no problem that my hard-earned mark gets reduced by approximately 26% in my profile, but why 0 on the PDF? What does that mean? Does it mean that you just canceled my entire week's work? And if so, why please? I worked so hard for this, and I never copied anyone neither am I aware that anyone copied mine. It would have been appropriate to send this to your email, but I don't have it. I would like to book an appointment to your office, if possible? My week's hard-earned marks cannot be wasted like that to be honest. Please please please, reinstate my mark or if there is anything wrong then allow me to see you in your office. Thanks

Professor sterbini explained in the Italian forum that programs that look too much alike are reviewed by all 4 professors. It is enough that 2 out of 4 think that something has been copied either from someone from the course or the internet that the exercise is annuled.

It is perfectly understandable that you are mad and not pleased but my suggestion as a course mate and friend is not get caught by emotions and focus on the recovery homework since I truly believe that this decision is hardly reversible.

Hope to make your evening a little bit less stressful ;)
