==== Participation ====

You are not graded on whether you show up to class, or not. However, you ''are'' graded on your participation in class. Everyone misses class every once in a while. However, if you need to miss a class and you want to assure that your absence does not negatively impact your grade, follow the steps steps to demonstrate that you engaged with the material covered during that class session. 

'''IMPORTANT: For full participation credit on a day you are absent, you ''must'' contact the instructor or TA before 10pm the day after class via email with this information:'''
# you have reviewed any materials we covered in the class, including instructor slides, links, videos, etc. (check the wiki)
# you have attempted to perform any in-class exercises that we performed during class (if they're listed on the wiki). 
# you have turned in any assignments (graded coding challenges, project deliverables) due during the that week's class

'''In your email:''' please ask questions, what confused you, tell us how far you got on the coding challenges, and be honest about what you couldn't complete. I also highly recommend that you share your solutions or partial solutions in the email--sending me python files and/or pasting code into the body of an email is totally fine--this helps me and Ray understand your thought process and evaluate your effort and your progress.
