The students stealing and being dishonest about where they get their code should think about what they are doing. You make life harder for the rest of us actually trying to learn something. We work hard to get the marks we get.
If you don't like programming or learning to write programs then why take the course in the first place? Why do the effort? Programming in the real life is much harder than this and then there will be no other students to steal from. You will probably not even pass the test to get the job in the first place and this could mean you're wasting time and money. I read the letter form the lecturer and thought about this a lot. I worked hard to learn to code and practically didn't (well still don't) really have a life. It takes time and you have to really have a passion for it. I would hate it if someone stole code I worked on for hours or even days on. How often this happens makes me very angry.
Stop it and go do something you can do or study something else. You're not doing anyone any good!
