All similar assignments (even with some meaningless modifications) will be awarded zero marks and no excuse will be accepted. This is your responsibility to keep your assignment safe from others. Many solution files sent by students in assignment 1 are found to be copied and so awarded zero. You are therefore reminding here again.
