CS1026A YouTube Emotions

CS1026A Fall 2024 

Assignment 3: YouTube Emotions 

Important Notes: 

• Read the whole assignment document before you begin coding. This is a more 

complex speciffcation than in past assignments and the examples and templates 

near the end of this document will be important in solving this assignment. 

• Assignments are to be completed individually. Use of tools to generate code, 

working with another person, or copying from online resources are not allowed and 

will result in a zero on this assignment regardless of how much was copied. 

• A code template is given in Section 6 (on page 17) for your main.py and 

emotions.py ffles. We highly recommend using these as a starting point for your 

assignment. The code is also attached to the assignment on OWL. 

Change Log: 

• Nov. 4

th

: The comments.csv ffle attached to Brightspace had an unexpected 

unicode character in one of the comments the changed the outcome of some of the 

examples given in this document. comments.csv has now been corrected and the 

examples in this document to match. 

• Nov. 13

th

: A type-o was found in the example for make_report() in section 5. This has 

now been corrected. The output shown at the end of the document in section 7 was 

still correct. This change has no impact on the autograder (it was marking correctly).

 2. Background 

With the emergence of social media sites such as YouTube, Facebook, Reddit, Twitter (also 

known as X), LinkedIn, and WhatsApp, more and more data is being produced and made 

accessible online in a textual format. This textual data, such as YouTube comments, 

Tweets, or Facebook posts, can be hard to process but is incredibly important for 

organizations as it offers a current snapshot of the public’s emotions (affinity) or sentiment 

about a topic at a current point in time. Having a live view of your customer’s current affinity 

towards your products or the public’s view of your political campaign can be critical for 

success. 

Much work has been done towards the goal of creating large datasets of word affinity or 

sentiment. One such effort is the National Research Council (NRC) Emotion Lexicon which 

is a list of English words and their associations with eight basic emotions (anger, fear, 

anticipation, trust, surprise, sadness, joy, and disgust) and two sentiments (negative and 

positive). 

Our goal in this assignment is to use a simpliffed version of the NRC Emotion Lexicon to 

classify YouTube comments based on one of the following emotions anger, joy, fear, trust, 

sadness, or anticipation. Based on the emotion contained in each comment for a particular 

video we then want to generate a report that details the most common emotions YouTube 

users have towards that video based on their comments. 

3. Datasets 

Your Python program will deal with two datasets, a keywords data set that contains a 

simpliffed version of the NRC Emotion Lexicon (this dataset will remain the same for all 

tests of your program) and a Comma-Separated Values (CSV) ffle that contains the 

comments for a particular YouTube video (this dataset will change for each test of your 

program). 

3.1 Keywords Dataset (TSV File) 

The keywords.tsv ffle attached to this assignment contains a simpliffed version of the NRC 

Emotion Lexicon. This is a Tab-Separated Values (TSV) ffle in which each line of the ffle 

contains a single word and its emotional classiffcation based on six emotions (anger, joy, 

fear, trust, sadness, and anticipation). Each word in the ffle may be classiffed as having one 

or more emotions. The following is an example of the ffrst 10 lines of this ffle where tab (\t) characters are 

represented by arrows (→): 

abacus→0→0→0→1→0→0 

abandon→0→0→1→0→1→0 

abandoned→1→0→1→0→1→0 

abandonment→1→0→1→0→1→0 

abbot→0→0→0→1→0→0 

abduction→0→0→1→0→1→0 

abhor→1→0→1→0→0→0 

abhorrent→1→0→1→0→0→0 

abolish→1→0→0→0→0→0 

abominable→0→0→1→0→0→0 

Each line starts with a keyword and is followed by a score (0 or 1) for each emotion in this 

order: anger, joy, fear, trust, sadness, and anticipation. If a 1 is present it means that 

keyword is related to that emotion. If a 0 is present the keyword is unrelated to that 

emotion. 

For example, according to the above the word “abacus” is related to the emotion of trust 

and no other emotions. The word “abandon” is related to the emotions fear and sadness 

and no other emotions. 

All words in the dataset will be related to at least one emotion. This ffle’s contents will 

remain the same for all tests but may be given a different fflename based on the users input 

(e.g. it could be named keys.tsv or words.tsv rather than keywords.tsv). 

3.2 Comments Dataset (CSV File) 

The user will provide a Comma-Separated Values (CSV) ffle that contains a set of YouTube 

comments for a particular video. The name of this ffle will change based on the user’s input 

but will always end in .csv and have the same format. 

The following is an example of a possible line from this ffle (the ffle may contain one or 

more lines). Note that this document wraps the line on to multiple lines but in the ffle this is 

one line ended by a line break (\n): 

2,PixelPioneer24,brazil,The excavation scenes in the movie were 

excellent but the unnecessary derision of the hero's motives seemed 

unfair. His eventuality of success was not adequately showcased. Each line of this ffle will contain four values separated by a single comma character (,). The 

values will always be in the following order: 

Comment ID, Username, Country, Comment Text 

Comment ID is a unique positive integer identiffer for the comment. Username is the 

username of the user who posted the comment. Country is the user’s home country, and 

comment text is the text the of the comment posted by the user. 

No value will contain a line break or a comma character. The capitalization of country 

names could be different for each line even if it is for the same country, but the country will 

always be spelled the same. 

Space characters will only occur in the comment text or country name. 

4. Tasks 

In this assignment, you will write two Python ffles, emotions.py and main.py, that will 

attempt to determine the most common emotion expressed in a YoutTube video’s 

comments. You will create a number of functions (as speciffed in the Functional 

Speciffcation in Section 5) that will perform simple sentiment analysis on the YouTube 

comments. 

To accomplish this, you will need to do the following: 

1. Accept input from the user: The user will specify the ffle names of the keywords 

and comments data sets as well as the name of the report ffle your program will 

create. The user will also input the name of the country they wish to fflter the 

comments by. 

2. Read. Your program will read in the keyword and comments datasets and store 

them in the formats described in the functional speciffcation (in Section 5). 

3. Clean. The text of the comments will be cleaned to remove any punctuation and 

convert them to all lowercase letters. 

4. Determine Emotion. You will use the keyword’s dataset to determine the overall 

emotion expressed in each comment. 

5. Generate Report. Based on your analysis of each comment, you will create a report 

ffle that contains a summary of the most common emotion expressed as well as 

how common each emotion was (as speciffed in Section 5). Additionally, you must follow the functional speciffcation presented in Section 5 and the 

rules and requirements in Section 8. 

5. Functional Speciffcation 

5.1 emotions.py 

The functions described in this section should be present in your emotions.py ffle and must 

be used in some way in your program to read, clean, process, analyze, or report on the 

comments in the given dataset. Each function and its parameters must have the same 

name and spelling as speciffed below: 

clean_text(comment) 

This function should have one parameter, comment, which is a string that contains the 

text of a single comment from the comments dataset. The function should clean this 

text by replacing any characters that are not letters (A to Z) and replacing them with 

space characters. It should also convert the comment’s text to all lower case. 

This function should return the cleaned text as a string. 

Example: 

clean_text("This4is-an example. It's a b*t silly.") 

will result in this output: 

this is an example it s a b t silly 

make_keyword_dict(keyword_file_name) 

This function should read the Tab-Separated Values (TSV) keywords ffle as described in 

Section 3.1. keyword_ffle_name is a string containing the name of the keywords ffle. 

This function can safely assume that this ffle exists, is in the current working directory, 

and is properly formatted. Checks on the ffle’s existence will be done in the main.py ffle 

described later in this document. 

The function should return a dictionary with keys for each word in the ffle and the values 

of this dictionary should be a new dictionary for each keyword that contains a value for 

each emotion (anger, joy, fear, trust, sadness, and anticipation). Example: 

Assuming that keywords.tsv contains the following three lines (where → is a tab 

character): 

abacus→0→0→0→1→0→0 

abandon→0→0→1→0→1→0 

abandoned→1→0→1→0→1→0 

then calling 

make_keyword_dict("keywords.tsv") 

should result in the following nested dictionary data structure: 

{'abacus': {'anger': 0, 

 'joy': 0, 

 'fear': 0, 

 'trust': 1, 

 'sadness': 0, 

 'anticipation': 0}, 

 'abandon': {'anger': 0, 

 'joy': 0, 

 'fear': 1, 

 'trust': 0, 

 'sadness': 1, 

 'anticipation': 0}, 

 'abandoned': {'anger': 1, 

 'joy': 0, 

 'fear': 1, 

 'trust': 0, 

 'sadness': 1, 

 'anticipation': 0} 

} Note that to pass the Gradescope tests this function must return a dictionary and not 

another collection such as a list, the keyword keys must be spelled exactly as listed in 

keywords.tsv, and the emotions must be spelled correctly and in lower case. 

Hint: You may find a number of the Python string methods helpful when creating this 

function. 

make_comments_list(filter_country, comments_file_name) 

This function should read the Comma-Separated Values (CSV) file as described in 

Section 3.2. comments_file_name is a string containing the name of the CSV file and 

filter_country is a string containing either a country name or the string “all”. This 

function should read the CSV file and return a list containing only comments for the 

given country listed in filter_country (or all countries if the string “all” is given). 

The list should contain one element for each comment in the file that matches the 

country in the filter (or all comments if “all” is given). Each element in the list should be a 

dictionary that contains a key for the Comment ID, Username, Country and Comment 

Text. The keys should be named 'comment_id', 'username', 'country', and 'text' 

respectively. 

The comment text should be stripped of any leading and trailing whitespace. 

Example 1: 

Assuming that comments.csv only contains the following two lines (note that the line is 

wrapped in this document and in the .csv file this is only two lines): 

1,RetroRealm77,united states,I was a bit disappointed with the 

film's portrayal of childhood heroism. It felt like the classic 

elements were just concealed under layers of unnecessary savagery 

and violence. 

2,PixelPioneer24,brazil,The excavation scenes in the movie were 

excellent but the unnecessary derision of the hero's motives seemed 

unfair. His eventuality of success was not adequately showcased. 

then calling 

make_comments_list("all", "comments.csv") 

should result in the following nested list and dictionary data structure: [ {'comment_id': 1, 

 'username': 'RetroRealm77', 

 'country': 'united states', 

 'text': 'I was a bit disappointed with the film's portrayal of 

childhood heroism. It felt like the classic elements were just 

concealed under layers of unnecessary savagery and violence.'}, 

 {'comment_id': 2, 

 'username': 'PixelPioneer24', 

 'country': 'brazil', 

 'text': 'The excavation scenes in the movie were excellent but 

the unnecessary derision of the hero's motives seemed unfair. His 

eventuality of success was not adequately showcased.'} ] 

Example 2: 

Given the same contents of comments.csv as in Example 1, if the following function call 

with the country name brazil was made: 

make_comments_list("brazil", "comments.csv") 

then the only element in the returned list would be: 

[ {'comment_id': 2, 

 'username': 'PixelPioneer24', 

 'country': 'brazil', 

 'text': 'The excavation scenes in the movie were excellent but 

the unnecessary derision of the hero's motives seemed unfair. His 

eventuality of success was not adequately showcased.'} ] 

 Example 3: 

Given the same contents of comments.csv as in Example 1, if the function was called 

with a country name that was not present in the file such as: 

make_comments_list("not a real country", "comments.csv") 

then the resulting list would be empty: 

[] 

Note that to pass the Gradescope tests this function must return a list and not another 

collection such as a set or dictionary, the values of each list element must be a 

dictionary, and the keys used in that dictionary must match the spelling and lowercase 

capitalization given in this section. 

classify_comment_emotion(comment, keywords) 

This function takes the text of a comment and the keywords dictionary created by the 

make_keyword_dict function as parameters and classifies the comment as one of the 

possible emotions (anger, joy, fear, trust, sadness, and anticipation), returning the 

emotion as a string. 

A comment is classified by first cleaning the text (using the clean_text function) and 

then checking each word in the comment against the keywords dictionary. A total for 

each possible emotion should be kept with each word in the comment matching a 

keyword adding to the totals (based on the values in the keywords dictionary). 

Example: 

For the comment: 

The excavation scenes in the movie were excellent but the 

unnecessary derision of the hero's motives seemed unfair. His 

eventuality of success was not adequately showcased. 

the text should be first cleaned using clean_text to get: 

the excavation scenes in the movie were excellent but the 

unnecessary derision of the hero s motives seemed unfair his 

eventuality of success was not adequately showcased then each word should be checked against the keywords dictionary and the totals for 

each emotion kept. Words not matching any words in the dictionary (shown in black 

above) do not add to the scores. For example, using the full keywords.tsv dataset the 

words shown in blue above have matches in the keyword dataset and would result in 

the following totals: 

Word anger joy fear trust sadness anticipation 

excavation 0 0 0 0 0 1 

excellent 0 1 0 1 0 0 

derision 1 0 0 0 0 0 

hero 0 1 0 1 0 1 

unfair 1 0 0 0 1 0 

eventuality 0 0 1 0 0 1 

success 0 1 0 0 0 1 

Total: 2 3 1 2 1 4 

Therefore, this comment would be classified as having the emotion of anticipation and 

the string “anticipation” should be returned by the function as it as the highest score. 

In the event of a tie, the emotions should be given priority in this order: 1) anger, 2) joy, 3) 

fear, 4) trust, 5) sadness, and 6) anticipation. 

Hint: You may find the string split method useful for looping through words rather than 

characters. 

make_report(comment_list, keywords, report_filename) 

This function takes the comment_list (created by the make_comments_list function), 

the keywords dictionary (created by the make_keyword_dict function), and a string 

containing the file name of the report to generate (report_filename) as parameters. 

A new file should be created with the file name in report_filename and it should contain 

the name of the most common emotion classification in the comment_list dataset as 

well as a count of the number of comments classified as each emotion. In the event of a 

tie the emotions should be given priority in this order: 1) anger, 2) joy, 3) fear, 4) trust, 5) 

sadness, and 6) anticipation. 

 The format of the report should match the following example which is based on the 

attached comments.csv and keywords.tsv with a country filter of “all”: 

Most common emotion: anger 

Emotion Totals 

anger: 5 (33.33%) 

joy: 2 (13.33%) 

fear: 1 (6.67%) 

trust: 3 (20.0%) 

sadness: 3 (20.0%) 

anticipation: 1 (6.67%) 

The emotion totals should occur in the same order (regardless of the counts) but the 

values would be different depending on the comment_list and keywords dictionary 

passed to the function. 

All percentages should be rounded to two digits and all six emotions should always be 

listed even if their count is zero. Important: in your report file each percentage must be 

written with one or two decimal places. A value such as 20.000% or 6.6700% would be 

wrong even though it is technically rounded as there are too many decimal places. Your 

output must be formatted exactly as shown in the example above including the spacing 

and line breaks. 

 Return 

The function should return the name of the most common emotion; in this example it 

would be “anger”. 

Exception 

In the event that the comment_list contains no comments (i.e. it is an empty list), the 

function should raise a RuntimeError containing the text “No comments in dataset!”. 

Reminder: The report should be saved to a file and not output to the screen or returned 

by the function. Only the name of the most common emotion should be returned. 

 5.2 main.py 

The program in main.py should ask the user for the file names of the keyword file and 

comments file that the data will be read from, as well as the name of the report file that will 

be created. It must use the functions defined in the emotions.py file to perform the tasks 

described in Section 4 and write the final report. 

Your main.py file must contain the following two functions (ask_user_for_input and main) 

as specified: 

ask_user_for_input() 

This function takes no parameters but asks the user to input the file names of the 

keywords TSV file, the comments CSV file, the country to filter by, and the file name of the 

report to be generated. These three filenames and the country name are returned in a 

tuple in this order: 1) keyword filename, 2) comment fflename, 3) country name 

(converted to lower case), and 4) report filename. 

Example (of valid input): 

Input keyword file (ending in .tsv): keywords.tsv 

Input comment file (ending in .csv): comments.csv 

Input a country to analyze (or "all" for all countries): Canada 

Input the name of the report file (ending in .txt): report.txt 

User input is shown in green and input prompts in black. Note that the filenames and 

country are based on the user’s input and can not be hardcoded to one set value. This 

means that the filenames could be different depending on the values input by the user. 

In this case the following tuple would be returned: 

('keywords.tsv', 'comments.csv', 'canada', 'report.txt') 

Note that the country name was converted to all lowercase. 

Exceptions 

Your ask_user_for_input() method must complete the following checks on the user input. 

If the input does not pass a check, an Exception should be raised causing the function to 

exit immediately. Exceptions should be raised as soon as the invalid input is given. For example, if the 

keyword file does not exist, an exception should be raised before asking the user to input 

the comments file name. 

Check 1: File Extension 

For each of the three filenames, if the user inputs a filename ending in the wrong file 

extension (.csv, .tsv, or .txt) the function should raise a ValueError exception with a 

message stating that the file extension is incorrect such as “Keyword file does not end in 

.tsv!”. The text of this message must be exactly the following for each file: 

• Keyword File: “Keyword file does not end in .tsv!” 

• Comments File: “Comments file does not end in .csv!” 

• Report File: “Report file does not end in .txt!” 

Check 2: Files Exist 

For the keyword and comment files you must check if the file exists using the 

os.path.exists function. If it does not, your function must raise a IOError exception with 

text explaining that the function does not exist. The message should have the text “<file 

name> does not exist!” where <file name> is replaced with the filename such as 

“keywords.tsv does not exist!", where keywords.tsv is the missing file. 

For the report file, if the file already exists, an IOError should be raised with text stating 

that “<file name> already exists!” where <file name> is the name of the report file. For 

example “report.txt already exists!” where the report file is named report.txt. This is to 

help prevent accidentally overwriting any files. 

Check 3: Valid Country 

Lastly you must check that the country input is either “all” or one of the following 

countries: 'bangladesh', 'brazil', 'canada', 'china', 'egypt', 'france', 'germany', 'india', 'iran', 

'japan', 'mexico', 'nigeria', 'pakistan', 'russia', 'south korea', 'turkey', 'united kingdom', or 

'united states'. If any other country or word is input, a ValueError should be raised with 

the text “<country> is not a valid country to filter by!” where <country> is the country the 

user input. This subset of countries was chosen as they tend to occur in the datasets, we are using 

more than others. In more realistic scenario you would likely want to include all valid 

country names in this list, but this assignment limit to the above-mentioned countries. 

Keep in mind that this only limits the countries a user can filter by, it does not limit what 

country names can occur in the dataset. 

main() 

This function handles calling the other functions in main.py and emotions.py to perform 

the tasks listed in Section 3. It should check for any exceptions being raised by the 

ask_user_for_input function, output the error message contained in the exception (this 

can be done by simply printing the exception with print()), and ask the user to input the 

values again if any exception is raised. 

Once valid input has been received, it should call the functions from emotions.py 

required to analyze the comments and generate the report. 

Lastly it should output to the screen the most common emotion in the comment data set. 

This should be displayed as “Most common emotion is: <emotion name>” where emotion 

name is the name of the emotion such as “Most common emotion is: anger” if the 

emotion is anger. 

If the make_report function raises a RuntimeError exception (e.g. the comment list was 

empty), it should output the message contained in that error. 

Example 1: 

For the values in the attached keywords.tsv and comments.csv files: 

Input keyword file (ending in .tsv): keywords.tsv 

Input comment file (ending in .csv): comments.csv 

Input a country to analyze (or "all" for all countries): all 

Input the name of the report file (ending in .txt): report.txt 

Most common emotion is: anger 

User input is shown in green and the contents of the outputted report.txt file is: 

Most common emotion: anger 

Emotion Totals 

anger: 5 (33.33%) joy: 2 (13.33%) 

fear: 1 (6.67%) 

trust: 3 (20.0%) 

sadness: 3 (20.0%) 

anticipation: 1 (6.67%) 

Example 2: 

For the same values in keywords.tsv and comments.csv but a country of “Canada”: 

Input keyword file (ending in .tsv): keywords.tsv 

Input comment file (ending in .csv): comments.csv 

Input a country to analyze (or "all" for all countries): Canada 

Input the name of the report file (ending in .txt): report_cad.txt 

Most common emotion is: sadness 

 And the contents of report_cad.txt would be: 

Most common emotion: sadness 

Emotion Totals 

anger: 1 (16.67%) 

joy: 0 (0.0%) 

fear: 0 (0.0%) 

trust: 2 (33.33%) 

sadness: 3 (50.0%) 

anticipation: 0 (0.0%) 

Example 3: 

In this example invalid inputs are given, and the user is asked to input them again. 

Input keyword file (ending in .tsv): not_a_real_file.tsv 

Error: not_a_real_file.tsv does not exist! 

Input keyword file (ending in .tsv): real_file_wrong_extension.txt 

Error: Keyword file does not end in .tsv! 

Input keyword file (ending in .tsv): keys.tsv 

Input comment file (ending in .csv): not_a_real_file.csv 

Error: not_a_real_file.csv does not exist! 

Input keyword file (ending in .tsv): keys.tsv 

Input comment file (ending in .csv): bad_file_extension.tsv 

Error: Comment file does not end in .csv! 

Input keyword file (ending in .tsv): keys.tsv 

Input comment file (ending in .csv): c.csv 

Input a country to analyze (or "all" for all countries): Duck 

Error: duck is not a valid country to filter by! 

Input keyword file (ending in .tsv): keys.tsv 

Input comment file (ending in .csv): c.csv 

Input a country to analyze (or "all" for all countries): Belgium 

Error: belgium is not a valid country to filter by! 

Input keyword file (ending in .tsv): keys.tsv 

Input comment file (ending in .csv): c.csv 

Input a country to analyze (or "all" for all countries): FrAnCe 

Input the name of the report file (ending in .txt): report.txt 

Error: report.txt exists, the report file can not already exist! 

Input keyword file (ending in .tsv): keys.tsv 

Input comment file (ending in .csv): c.csv 

Input a country to analyze (or "all" for all countries): FrAnCe 

Input the name of the report file (ending in .txt): report_france.txt 

Error: No comments in dataset! 

Note that the above is one run of the program. It should keep asking for input again if an 

exception occurs in the ask_user_for_input function. Also note that in this example, 

keys.tsv and c.csv are valid files that exist and the file report.txt already exists. “Belgium” 

is not in the list of valid countries so it is rejected and “FrAnCe” is accepted despite it’s 

odd capitalization as the ask_user_for_input function should convert it to lowercase. 

In this example, the c.csv file contained no comments for France, so the exception “No 

comments in dataset!” was raised by make_report function. 

 6. Templates 

This section gives some starter code you should use in your program. You may not alter the 

names of any function or the parameters the functions take (this includes adding or 

removing parameters). You may not import any libraries or modules not included in the 

template code and all code you add should be inside a function (adding code outside of a 

function may cause the Gradescope tests to fail). You may add additional helper functions 

as needed. 

emotions.py 

# add a comment here with your name, email, and student number 

# you can not add any import lines to this file 

EMOTIONS = ['anger', 'joy', 'fear', 'trust', 'sadness', 'anticipation']

Note About Imports 

It is important to import the files in the correct order and from the correct files. Main.py 

should import emotions.py as shown in the template above and not the other way around. 

7. Extra Example 

The files keywords.tsv and comments.csv should be attached to this assignment on 

OWL. The result of running them with the following countries is given below: 

Example 1: Country of “All” 

Input/Output:

 8. Non-Functional Specification 

In addition to the other tasks and specifications given in this document, your program must 

also fulfill the following requirements: 

1. Your code must be written for Python 3.10 or newer. 

2. You may not use any modules or third-party libraries not described in this 

document. Standard built-in functions such as the String, file, and math functions 

are fine. You should not have to import anything other than your emotions.py and 

the os.path module. TAs may manually remove marks from your Gradescope test if 

you violate this rule. 

3. You must document your code with brief comments. Each file should contain a 

comment at the top of the file with your name, western e-mail, student number, and 

a brief description of what is contained in that file. At least one comment should 

also be given for each function that describes its purpose, parameters, and values 

returned. You should also include any additional comments to document any lines 

that may be unclear to the reader. 

4. Your program must be efficient and terminate within a reasonable time limit. All 

gradescope test cases (including any hidden cases) must terminate within the 

autograder’s time limit. 

5. Assignments are to be done individually and must be your own original work. You 

may not show or otherwise share your code for this assignment with others or use 

tools to generate your code for you. Software will be used to detect academic 

dishonesty (cheating). If you have any questions about what is or is not academic 

dishonesty, please consult the document on academic dishonesty and ask any 

questions to your course instructor before submitting this assignment. 

6. You must follow Python style and coding conventions and good programming 

techniques, for example: 

a. Meaningful variable and function names. 

b. Use a consistent convention for naming variables, constants, and functions 

(snake case is recommended). 

c. Readability: indentation, white space, consistency. 

7. All of your code should be contained in the files main.py and emotions.py. Only 

submit these files and no others and ensure the filenames match exactly. It is your 

responsibility to ensure you have submitted the correct files. 

8. All function names and outputs should follow the specifications given in this 

document exactly. Not following the specifications may lead to test cases failing. It is your responsibility to ensure you have followed them correctly and your tests are 

passing. 

9. Hardcoding or any other attempt to fool Gradescope’s autograder will result in a 

zero grade for that test being manually assigned and possibly additional penalties. If 

you have any doubts about what is or is not hardcoding, please ask your instructor 

by posting to the course forums. 

10. Frequently backup your work remotely (e.g. using OneDrive) in a way that is secure 

and private. No extension will be given for lost or corrupted files or submitting 

incorrect files. 

9. Marking and Submission 

9.1 Submission 

You must submit the 2 files (main.py and emotions.py) to the Assignment 3 submission 

page on Gradescope. There are several tests that will automatically run when you upload 

your files. The result of each test with be displayed to you, but not necessarily the exact 

details of the test. It is your responsibility to ensure all tests pass before the 

assignment due date. 

It is recommended that you create your own test cases to check that the code is working 

properly for a multitude of different scenarios (some example datasets have been provided 

for you with this document on OWL). 

Assignments will not be accepted by email or by any other form other than a Gradescope 

submission. 

9.2 Marking 

The assignment will be marked as a combination of your auto-graded tests (both visible 

and hidden tests) and manual grading of your code logic, comments, formatting, style, etc. 

Marks will be deducted for failing to follow any of the specifications in this document 

(both functional and nonfunctional), not documenting your code with comments, using 

poor formatting or style, hardcoding, or naming your files incorrectly. 

 Marking Scheme: 

• Autograded Tests: 24.5 points 

• Header comment including your name, student ID, course info, creation date, and 

description of file: 1.5 points 

• Descriptive in-line comments throughout code: 1 point 

• Meaningful variable names: 1 point 

Total: 28 points 

9.3 Late Submissions 

Late assignments will only be accepted up to 3 days late and only if you have enough late 

coupons remaining (at least one for each day late). If you submit one day late, you will need 

to use 1 late coupon. 2 days late, 2 late coupons. And 3 days late, 3 late coupons. If you 

have insufficient late coupons remaining or submit more than 3 days late, you will receive a 

zero grade on this assignment. 

It is your responsibility to track your late coupon use. Any values shown on OWL should be 

considered an estimate and may not be accurate or up to date. 

Unlimited resubmissions are allowed, but the late penalty will be determined by the 

date/time of your most recent (last) resubmission. This means if you resubmit past the 

deadline, your assignment will be considered late.
