Exam 2 Logistics
- Modules covered: 4, 5, and 6
- Note: Even though it’s the same number of modules as Exam 1, that does not mean it is assessing the same amount of knowledge. Module 01 was a pre-amble module to remind you all of Python and as a warm-up for the weekly cadence of the class.
- Practice Exam (Part1 – Link, Part2 – Link)
- Note: This does not have a question about regular expressions, but the real exam will. One of the question’s solutions does use regular expressions it is just not required of the question.
- Timeframe: It will open Thursday, 3/23, at 12:01 AM, and close Saturday, 3/25, at 11:59 PM.
- The exam will close at 11:59 pm regardless of when you started.
- The exam will be take-home. It is open book, open note, open internet, but closed to people.
- This means you cannot receive help on this exam from anyone, including (but not limited to) communicating with a person while taking the exam, such as asking someone through the Internet (like stackoverflow) to receive help.
- It consists of 2 parts that, like Exam 1 Part 2, each have a time limit of 2 hours. Both parts will have data sets, and they will be different.
- All other information is similar to Exam 1 Part 2. Such as getting the files, Gradescope, Sakai, asking for help, grading policy, etc.
- Grading Clarification: A simple copy+paste and find+replace replacement from the practice exam is considered a Satisfactory answer. You must use your own words or elaborate beyond the practice exam text to show an Exemplary level of content mastery.
