CS 1110: Introduction to Computing Using Python

Fall 2012

Exams

There are two prelims and a final in this course. Because of the size of this class, and having to coordinate multiple sections, the exam times have already been scheduled way in advance. Please make sure that you have nothing else planned at these times; there are no alternative times for these exams.

With that said, we will have a policy for legitimate conflicts. We will explain later how to deal with these issues.

Prelim 1

This prelim will cover the basics of Python. It will include the material presented in class up to, and including, September 25. There is no Recursion on this prelim. In addition, you are responsible for any and all reading in listed on the lecture slides for each day.

Prelim 2

This prelim will cover the more advanced concepts that we have talked about since the last exam. In particular, both recursion and classes will feature heavily on this exam. It will include the material presented in class up to, and including, October 30. This includes recursion, iteration (for-loops), classes, and object-oriented design.

Final Exam

The final is comprehensive, and will include topics from the previous two prelims. New topics on the final include while loops and loop invariants. You will be expected to reproduce one of the important sequence algorithms covered in class.
