Feedback for student programming assignments on quality is a tedious and laborious task for the instructor. In this paper, we\r\nmake use of few object-oriented software metrics along with a reference code that is provided by the instructor to analyze student\r\nprograms and provide feedback. The empirical study finds those software metrics that can be used on the considered programming\r\nassignments and the way reference code helps the instructor to assess them. This approach helps the instructor to easily find out\r\nquality issues in student programs. Feedback to such assignments can be provided using the guidelines which we will be discussing.\r\nWe also perform an experimental study on programming assignments of sophomore students who were enrolled in an objectoriented\r\nprogramming course to validate our approach.
