Two tests this week (Nov. 20-24)

This week we will have two tests: (1) a short, 15-20 minute multiple choice test for you to show your understanding and (2) in the final class of the week, a test in which you will have the entire class to show how well you can write programs.

The programming test will have questions very similar to the questions at the end of the chapter or in the "extra practice" exercises you have been working on. No questions on the test will be as difficult as the questions in the textbook we've called "challenging." In other words, if you can solve the standard questions, you can do very well on the test.

The programming test may have as many as seven questions. This may seem like a lot but, in fact, some of them are quite easy so that everyone has a chance to do well.
