 ===== Naming Files and Folders =====
-Folders on the 1st hierarchical level should bear the name of the student or of the student group. First and last names must be separated by a space. Use „ - “ to separate the names of projects involving two or more students. Use last names only for groups (i..e, more than 3 students).

-From the 2nd hierarchical level, folders and files should only bear initials. Use the underscore sign to separate initials from further names. Folders containing your project groups are stored on this level. We have illustrated the structure with a group submission. In all other cases, create three files beginning with your initials and separated by an underscore sign. Use an underscore sign and the folder title after your initials.
