What the colors mean: Maroon
means the points belong to the 1st batch of points.
Green means the points
belong to the 2nd batch.
Blue means the points
belong the the 3rd batch.
Black means the points belong
with the final.
If a person joined the term
late, they must do previous assignments, for which they receive full
credit.
Thus, a first year student may
have the first few assignments in a color other than Maroon.
