Guidelines to author solutions for different types of questions:
1. Programming type questions:
While authoring solutions related to programming, there are multiple logical parts, with each part
having one or more Chegg steps.
• First part (needed only in special cases): If the situation given is complex or involve
mathematics or topics from other subjects; then the analysis of the situation/problem
should be explained in this part.
• Second part: Give explanation briefly, how the program will be implemented and how it works
under the heading “Program Plan:”.
• Third part (needed only in special cases): When designing forms in “.net” environment (or
any equivalent environment), the steps involved in placing the controls, naming etc. should be
explained.
25

• Fourth part: Write the program code in specified programming language under the heading “Program:”.
The code should be formatted as follows:
a) In the beginning of the program use comment block. In that block, write description (in one or two
lines) of what the program does.
b) If any specific header files or import packages are used (other than usual), then write details about
the functions or methods used from those header files or packages.
c) Before function/method heading, explain their functionality in comments.
d) Write necessary comments to understand the statements and the logical flow of the program.
e) Write comments for every statement in the function, method, and definitions.
f) Use a delimiter to separate functions (C Language) and different classes (OO Languages).
g) Write the program using the topics/concepts covered so far in the textbook.
h) The program should be indented properly. The indenting should follow “Allman Style”.
26

• Fifth Part (needed only in special cases): Write this part in the following situations with appropriate
heading.
a) If the program requires any special execution method (example: command line arguments in C or
C++), the procedure of execution should be explained.
b) If the program needs to work with database, give step-by-step procedure to run the program.
• Sixth part: The output is given under the heading “Sample Output:”. Present the output as follows:
a) Show all the important outputs of the program.
b) If the program is console-based, then the output should be in text form directly copied from the console
(using Clipboard pasting).
c) If the program is GUI based, then the output should contain screenshots.
• Seventh part (needed only in special cases): Include this part if the output needs to be explained.
Note: Use specified Integrated Development Environments (IDEs) for compiling, debugging, and running
the programs. Present the code in colors as per the default colors of the IDE.
27

2. Write function/method:
• Write the function/method in the user specified language, within the scope of the concepts, and
functionality specifications.
• Write the method with the parameters and return values as specified.
• Use adequate comments to understand the statements, logic, and functionality.
• Try to demonstrate the functionality of the function/method using a simple driver program (If
the function/method is independent and can be called directly).
28

3. Write specific parts of the program/Modifying the program:
• Identify the statement or method need to be added.
• Identify the location in the program where the statement or method needs to be added.
• Don’t write complete program given in the textbook. Instead give reference to the location in
the textbook where the code is available. Use Figure No., Table No., Listing No., as
references. Avoid using page numbers as references.
• Highlight the code that is added/modified using “Text Highlighter” in grey colour. It helps the
user to identify the additions/modifications easily.
• Give the code (skeleton) with the required additions.
• Present the code with proper indentation along with output.
29

4. Rectify the errors in the code/statements:
• Read and understand the question carefully and identify the statements with errors.
• Give explanation, why the statement/code is an error.
• Fix all the errors in the program/code/statement and make the code executable if possible.
• If program is given to rectify errors, then highlight the code that is rectified using “Text
Highlighter” in grey colour. It helps the user to identify the rectifications easily and give the
code (skeleton).
5. Differences between two concepts:
• Use a table to give the differences, and give as many (at least 5) differences as possible.
• Distinguish with the help of detailed explanation.
• If the question asked to compare and contrast, give the comparisons first and differences next
(don’t mix).
30

6. Matching questions:
• Identify the correct matching terms and give the appropriate matching using a table.
• Give simple explanation stating the reasons for matching.
7. Theoretical questions:
• Author the solution in own words.
• Provide a clear idea regarding the concept being discussed.
• Explain the key terms and technical words clearly.
• Low level explanation is desirable.
• Provide diagrams, if necessary.
31

8. Problematic questions:
• Identify and explain the given constraints/inputs of the problem.
• In each step give detailed explanation what is going to be achieved/calculated.
• If formula is required in a step; write it, give description of the formula, and its significance in
the step.
• Don’t provide direct answers.
9. Pseudo code and Flowcharts:
• Read and understand the question carefully and identify all the requirements.
• Follow the instructions given in the question and present the pseudo code, flowchart in the
same order. Pseudo code style should match the style given in the textbook.
• Use Serif Draw Plus, Microsoft Paint, Microsoft Visio (or any other equivalent software)
to draw flow-charts. Flow-chart symbols should be aligned neatly.
32

10. Case study questions:
• Read and understand the given case study.
• Read the questions given for the respective case study.
• Author the solution such that the ideas/suggestions/context discussed in the case study
should reflect in the solution.

50

E) NOTABLE POINTS
1. For theory as well as numerical problems, introductory part of the solution should contain
relevant concept or context discussed in the question. The main idea behind the introduction
part is to give the student an understanding of the underlying concept.
2. For assumption/opinion-based questions, expert should avoid writing the solution using first
person or second person pronouns like I/we/us/me/you, etc. Instead of this, expert is
advised to write the solution from an individual’s perspective.
51

3. While giving examples of a person, company, or location, expert should write the complete
name like Bill Gates, Barack Obama, Amazon, America, California, etc. Whereas, if a
question/case study already contains the name of a person or location, expert should use the
initials to denote the same.
4. For business law questions, expert can also quote the actual law/definition using proper
citations.
52

5. Plagiarism/ copyright issue: Expert should not copy the headings for a topic directly from
the textbook as it can lead to plagiarism issue.
6. Paraphrasing of sentences by eliminating some words, using synonyms, or joining some

sentence together cannot remove the copyright/ plagiarism issues. Expert is advised to write the
entire solution in their own words for plagiarism free writing.
7. Expert should not start a sentence with “Yes/No/And/Also/But”.
