The document provides instructions for a computing homework assignment with two parts. The first part asks students to explain the differences between validation and verification with an example of each. The second part instructs students to create a program that validates the length of a user-entered word, provide a flowchart and code, include tests, annotate and evaluate the code. Students are also asked to include a sample test table.
