Final exam (retake)

The final exam will be held on June 18 at 09:00 and it will be a 2-hour exam consisting of 14 open questions. However, you will answer only 12 questions, which you can choose. That means 10 minutes per question, so try to manage your time. There will be one question per lesson, possibly including relevant parts of your homework assignments.

For the question for Lesson 7.1 (applications), you should have studied one application of your choice. It will ask you for some details about it.

During the exam, you are free to check the course materials (videos/handouts/assignments) and any other materials you can find (eg books or the internet). Just please don’t communicate with others. We are asking for your honesty to help us push back against invasive methods in remote education (eg online proctoring).

The exam will be a Markdown (plain text) file that will be published at 8:55 here. You should download it to your computer, add your answers by directly editing the file, and upload it through a Dropbox request here. Exams will be accepted until 11:05, so please avoid problems by uploading it at 11:00 at the latest. If you’re worried about the time, maybe set an alarm for 11:00 on your phone? We will also post a message on Discord at 11:00. Exams submitted late will not be accepted.

If you have a special dispensation for extra time, you are allowed to upload the exam until 11:35.

Markdown files look like plain text with minimal formatting, like this. You can edit Markdown files with any text editor, including whatever you use for Python or C++ programming. Some possibilities: Sublime Text (my preferred option), Atom, VS Code, Notepad++. If you really want to answer your questions in another software, you are allowed to upload a PDF file instead.

If you have any questions during the exam, you can send Ken (kenohori#5365) a DM on Discord. Email is also fine.

If something goes seriously wrong (eg sudden illness or internet going down), do not worry. Just contact Ken as soon as you can for alternative arrangements (most likely an oral exam through a video call).
