Creating an assignment as a PDF file
Once you have done all the questions for an assignment, i.e. all the programs compile
correctly and produces output, you are ready to create the PDF file for submission.
1. Start off by creating a new Word document and saving it with the name in the
following format:
YourStudentNumber_COS1512_AssignmentNumber, e.g.
12345678_COS1512_01
2. Include your detail, i.e. name, student number, and the assignment number on the
first line of the Word file.
3. Number each question and then add the source code, input and the output for the
question. Add the source code as follows:
In Code::Blocks, open the .cpp file containing your solution to the question.
Select all the source code (the contents of the .cpp file in Code::Blocks) using
CTRL A.
Copy the selected source code using CTRL C.
Go to your Word document, and paste the source code under the question
heading using CTRL V, or Paste on the menu bar.
