The teacher assistant Erik Aalto has prepared a tutorial (updated Feb 6) on how to search the dataset linearly using the command grep. This can be used to debug your search engine - you can create your own querys, discover the true number of hits using grep, and then verify that you get the same number of hits with your engine.

Grading Each assignment is graded as A-F(fail) at the review session. In the case of F, the assignment has to be presented again at a later session. The grade depends on how large part of the assigment that was carried out correctly - this is specified on each assigment description. The grade is also affected by delays in the presentation of the assignment. The tables below show how the grades for assignment 1, 2, and 3 decays over time. "Grade Assignment X" corresponds to the grade according to the specification on the assignment description:
