The course is structured in such a way, that lab exercises can hurt you
You can miss up to 2 labs before it starts to affect your grade
To receive credit for your lab, you must

Show me your running program before the class ends of the current lab assignment
That being said, if there are ever any problems, just let me know, we can work out a solution most of the time.
