CSE 331 Allowed Online Sources

Fall 2026

This page lists online sources that are allowed for homework. For a full list of allowed sources, please see the homework policy page.

Please Note

This list is provided for your convenience: it might not contain the most up-to-date list of all allowed online sources. Furthermore, note that while web pages linked to from this web page are fine, you are not allowed to do "link hopping." You may use the site linked from this page, but you may not follow a chain of links to other sites unless those sites are separately approved.

As a reminder, the homework is designed so that you should be able to complete it using only the allowed sources. You should not need to use sources beyond those listed or otherwise approved.

If you would like to have a link considered as an official source, please send it to us in a private message on Piazza and we will approve it if appropriate.

Generative AI is not an allowed source

ChatGPT and other generative AI tools are not allowed for homework. The homework is designed around work that we believe is important for you to do yourself; it is not busy work for which AI cooperation would be appropriate. Please see the homework policy page for the full policy and penalties.

Vetting of Sources

While we have vetted these online sources, we cannot guarantee the complete accuracy of everything in all of these sources. In particular, these sources might not be as polished as the textbook or material covered in lecture. If you spot something that contradicts something we have covered in class, please let us know and we will add an appropriate erratum.
