Guideline for computing and informatics college final year project

1. Format or writing style in your Documentation Project

Paper size and margins

-Use A-4 paper (8 1/2 x 11) and 2.5 cm for all margins of the manuscripts
Line and paragraph spacing
-Use 1.5 spacing for the body of the text, except for tables and references, where you need to

Example 2: Subheading and Font size

Chapter One
Introduction
-Capitalize only the first letter of the subheading and make its font size 14 and bold as above.

Example 3: Sub-subheading
