• Submitting any portion of the test 3 means the test will count as part of your grade.

• Answer the questions in any order that you want.

• I suggest you do things the easiest way possible. There are no intended trick questions. Each program has a straight-forward answer.

• To make things go smoother, you are strongly encouraged to submit as you go along.

• Do not modify or delete any of the code provided in the program files.

• When indicating values: If the value is integer, do not use a decimal point. If the value is decimal, use a decimal point. If the value is a string, enclose it within quotes.

• Your short answer solutions will automatically include time stamps of when you started the test and submitted the short answers.

• You may not access PyCharm when answering short answer questions.

• You must use my files for your program submissions.

• You have 120 minutes to complete. People with accommodations have 120 minutes times their multiplier: 180 minutes (1.5) and 240 (2.0).

• By submitting solutions for this test, you are agreeing that you neither given nor received aid directly or indirectly to or from another test taker.

• By submitting solutions for this test, you are agreeing that you did not use directly or indirectly use materials from non-allowed sources.

• Check that you uploaded all your solutions. Do not ask later to submit a forgotten solution.

• The only device you may access during the exam is your laptop. The only open windows allowed are PyCharm and a browser with tabs linked from the class website.

• No outside help is permitted.

• The only code you may access are ones that you develop for this test.

• You may not access class notes, epistles, examples, artifacts, solutions on the web, or your own past assignments during the test.

• Code should follow class programming practices; e.g., whitespace, identifier naming, etc.

• Whether code is testable is important. Comment out or delete all debugging print() statements before submitting.
