I don't think so, but I don't think it would be against the CoC.

Then I really think we should do it. :) if only to give the people that help these /home work trolls/ something to laugh about.

We could put them in the OP of this thread for examples.
If anyone finds them, put the link here :-)
Re: Posting Homework Problems
i don't think you should do that. Just ignore the post if you think its homework.

I am a moderator, and it is not my job to ignore violations of the Code of Conduct. I recommend anyone else to not post, but to report, violations of the Code of Conduct.

If only we had this "web 2.0" as folks call it back when I was doing CS-related homework. In my day we had to post to USENET for our homework, not to mention walk 9 miles uphill barefoot in a blizzard to the public library to use the computers....
But seriously, nowadays any possible homework assignment involving programming is solvable with a simple google query. Don't junk up the forum.

That's not all true, at the moment i have 99.99% completed my assignment it will run through once perfectly fine, but once i add a for(i=0;i<10000;++i) it crashes, how would googling solve it?
In this case I doubt it would, and forums are a perfect place to get a fresh brain to look at code you have been staring at for 48+ hours and can't see the problem. Many times in class I have had people some even more advanced at coding than me ask me to look at code and within a couple seconds i can see a syntax error or logic error that they could not see after doing all the work and staring at the problem for 3+ hours.

That's not really what we're talking about here. That is a valid post, because you have done most of the work and you have a specific problem. Homework-related questions aren't forbidden, asking the forum to do your homework is.
