Desi's caught on algorithms assignment @ March 2007

A story happened in NC State that played with the future of 28 desis for four days

thr was a prob. in an assignment which was tough n no one solved it..the day before the submission, myself n another girl Deepa came up with a sol.. v thought it was fine but still had doubts.. so v told 3 more ppl..all agreed..v made 5 different versions of it n submitted..

2 days later 28 ppl. got mail saying come n meet, u all caught up with plagiarism
tht night, the sol. went to so many others..:) but the thing is , it was a wrong one..:-P..28 ppl. cannot submit the same wrong solution..leading to all being caught massively

but everybody honestly mentioned tht thy learned some hints frm somebody
so savage made a tree showing who learned from whom..
whn i went to her n said , I am Suresh..she was like haaa u were the ROOT..:-P

I was like..i discussed only with 3 ppl. don't know wht happened n all..afterwards..
she was like okie...i will give u less punishment compared to others..

finally, she was nice..she deducted 30% frm everyone..n 15% from mine..

funny part was Kunal..
I told him wht i did .. he wrote it down..but did not feel like submitting.. so he removed the answer but he told somebody else..
who cited Kunal...whn i went ..she was like thr is a missing branch in my tree..:-P
can u help me fix it..she had all the fun whn all of us were tensed..:(
