For some time now, I was looking for a way to detect plagiarism in excel files.
Today I realized that in most cases, students that needs to submit an excel assignment (or for that matter, any other assignment) will be using a file already submitted by submitted by someone else in their group which they modify to some extent.
The students can only modify the file
1.
2.
3.
4. Sort the list of
5. Find the files with the same creation time
Do whatever it is you do.....
You can look at a demonstration here.
