Logistics

• Due: Tuesday, July 2 no later than 5pm.
• Submission instructions: upload solution, entitled FirstName-LastNameLab11.py to the BrightSpace Lab 11 Dropbox.
• Deadline reminder: once this deadline passes, BrightSpace will no longer accept your Python submission and you will no longer be able to earn credit. Thus, if you are not able to fully complete the assignment, submit whatever you have before the deadline so that partial credit can be earned.

Learning outcomes
