Please submit one PDF for all written problems. Note that your solutions to written problems only need to be within the PDF and do not need to be duplicated in the notebooks. Please ensure that if you are submitted scans of handwritten solutions that the text is legible.
  • Problem Set 6 notebook problems. The final versions of your notebooks: simulation_tuning.ipynb, door_opening.ipynb, rrt_planning.ipynb (downloaded from Deepnote). Please double check that the notebooks you are submitting have exactly these names.
When submitting to Gradescope, include all files in the same upload. This way, the autograder will be able to grade your notebooks, and the teaching staff will be able to read your written work. You do not need to submit any other files. For the notebook problems, Gradescope will give you a grade. You can resubmit as many times as you like before the deadline.

Finally, we have a small survey. After you take the survey, you will be given a code. Include this code in your written submission.
