INTRODUCTION

Plagiarism means taking all or part of someone else’s work and taking credit for it, as though it were yours, and people do this for many different reasons. One the other hand, source code plagiarism means taking all or part of someone else’s computer program source code and taking all the credit.

This project hence was to try to find a way to reduce the level of plagiarism among students in schools by facilitating the detection processes electronically by software
