Study advice for COSC 1010 Final Exam 1

The exam will be in the usual classroom on Friday, Dec 18, 2009 at 1:00PM.

As with the previous exams, the "Self-Test Questions" throughout the text are
one good way to review.  We've covered the following sections:

1.1-1.4, 2.1-2.5, 3.1-3.3, 4.1-4.2, 5.1-5.3, 6.1-6.5, 7.1-7.5, 
  9.1, 10.1-10.3
 
Anything in those sections is fair game for the exam, but there will not
be any questions about Enumerations.

I expect you to be familiar with the various techniques used in the homework
assignments and labs.

You should be familiar with the various examples which we discussed in
class.  These can be found on the website at the "Sample code from class"
link.

Here are some of the book's exercises that are similar to possible exam questions.
