You can work individually or with one project partner (your partner does not need to be in the same discussion section as you). In future projects you may work with a different partner or individually as you wish. If you work with a partner, be sure to form your group in CMS before you submit any file (see CMS).

Since this is an introductory course, and in order to give you practice on specific programming constructs, some Matlab functions/features are forbidden in assignments; only the built-in functions that have been discussed in class or the assigned reading so far may be used.
