Re: Ethics 101: To re-use or not to re-use?

Here's how I look at it...

The algorithms and designs can be re-used, but not the actual code. Thats GREAT!

This means you can let the new students look over the design or psudo-code, and see if they can build the software as a way of learning the program, and the older students can check and guide the new students.

Re-using the code seems like a lost opportunity. But then again, we aren't out there to win the game, just win... stuff for ourselves.
