CS 1110: Introduction to Computing Using Python

Fall 2017

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. Two weeks before each exam, you should upload your conflict information into CMS. You should use the provided make-up petition template to submit your information. If an emergency comes up in less than two weeks of the exam, you need to contact the instructors, head TA (if any), and course administrative assistant as soon as possible. In addition, you should still submit your information to CMS so that we can keep track of it (CMS will count it as "late").

Prelim 1

This prelim will cover the basics of Python. It will include the material presented in class up to, and including, October 3. 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, November 2.

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.

Exam Archive

To give you some idea of what the exams might be like, we are freely posting all of the exams from earlier semesters for you to look at how. However, please be aware of the following:

The material covered changes every semester in CS 1110. Furthermore, material is not always covered in the same order. The topics on these older exams may not be the topics in our exams.

In particular, the material between the Fall and Spring semesters can be quite different.
