Studying for the Final Exam: The final exam will be comprehensive. You should review all of the:

Questions can and will be taken from all of these materials.

Sample Exam Questions: In general, exams will contain three kinds of questions: short answer (e.g., true-false, multiple choice, matching, fill in the blank), code tracing (i.e., you are given a code fragment and asked to trace its execution), and programming (i.e., you are asked to design and/or write code to accomplish a particular task).


Note that the answers to the sample questions will not be made available. This to help you avoid focusing too much attention on the specifics of these questions. Instead, you should try and answer different variants of each question. Then you should discuss the questions and answers with other students enrolled in the course.

(Of course, you can easily check your answers to the code-tracing and programming questions by executing the code.)
