• Your report must be your own work. Please see the FAQ on Academic Integrity for informa on on
what is appropriate and what is not appropriate for Assignments.
Any students who use third-party services such as Chegg to post or view assignment ques ons will

• Present your assignment as a concise report in PDF format;
• The report must be typed, including all mathema cal working; handwriten assignments will
receive a mark of 0 and marks will be deducted for screenshots of equa ons and/or figures;
• Your MATLAB code must be included as an appendix to the assignment report. 10% of the
assignment marks are allocated for the readability and quality of your MATLAB code;
• The report should not exceed 10 pages (this limit does NOT include the code in the appendix);
• Structure the report using the appropriate Sec on and Ques on numbers (e.g. 1.1, 2.2). Ensure all
relevant working and final answers are in that sec on;
• All figures and tables in your report must be numbered and must be referred to and discussed;
• Submit your report to Turni n by the due date. Late submissions incur a penalty of 5%/day.
We have prepared an exemplary assignment to guide you in wri ng your own.
