COMP 280 — Exam 1

The following are the rules for this examination:

• You have four (4) hours to finish the entire exam.
• You need not do the entire exam in one session, but once you read a problem, you must finish that problem without taking time out (except in the case of emergencies).
• Turn in the exam no later than the start of class on Thursday, February 11.
• You can prepare one page of formulas and other notes in advance, which you must hand in with the exam. You can put formulas, definitions, explanations, etc. on this sheet, but not solutions of textbook or homework exercises. During the exam, you may not use the textbook, your notes, or any other source other than your page of notes. You may ask Drs. Goldman or Greiner for clarifications.
• Answer each problem on a separate piece of paper.
• Write all your answers in ink, not pencil. Pencil is difficult to read. If you want to change an answer, just cross out your old work and write your new answer. Do not try to erase.
