Spring 2000, CSE 428: About Midterm 1
Logistical info
- The MT 1 will take place on Feb 17, 2:30-3:45 pm in 260 Willard
(in-class).
- It is a "closed book" exam.
- The exam will be on the material presented during classes 2-10
(i.e. the classes from the beginning of the semester
till Thursday 2/10 included).
Format of the exam
The exam will consists of a list of questions.
You should write the answers on the same sheets. There is no
need to justify your answer, unless it is explicitly requested
in the text of the question.
Bonus for "no answer"
If you don't know the solution to one question, you may choose
to give "no answer" by leaving blank the space for the solution.
For each question to which you give no answer you will receive a
bonus of 10% of the maximum score for that question, rounded to the
next higher integer score.
If you start writing the answer, and later you wish you had
left it blank, just draw a line over your answer and write the word
"BLANK" in large letters.
Preparation for the midterm
A test will be posted here on
Friday 2/11. This test will not be graded, but
you are encouraged to try to solve it by yourself
as a preparation to the MT exam.
The MT will have the same
kind of questions
as the test.
The class of Tuesday 2/15 will be dedicated to
explaining and discussing the solution of the test.
Additionally,
you can find here
a collection of solved exercises
on the material explained so far.
