Final Examination
Use the form below to download the final exam. When you do so, the
time at which you downloaded it will be recorded. Your exam is due
either 48 hours after you download it for the first time or at
6:00pm sharp on Monday, Dec 10, 2007, whichever comes earlier.
Thus, the latest that you can start the exam and still have a full 48
hours to work on it is 6:00pm on Dec 8.
Please note the following important rules about the exam:
- The exam is open book and open notes. You may consult the
textbook(s), any materials posted to the course website and your own
lecture notes and graded homeworks, midterm and quizzes. Consulting
any other sources (e.g., other books or websites, someone else's
notes, etc.) is a violation of the Honor Code.
- You may use, without proof, any results proved in class or
in the textbook, provided you state clearly what result(s) you are
using.
- You may not discuss this exam in any detail whatsoever
with anyone, even after you have submitted it. If you have questions
on the course's material, please ask the professor or the TAs; we are
willing to help you to any extent with your understanding of the
material.
This exam has a hint purchasing system, that works as
follows.
- In case you find yourself completely stuck on a problem, you
might want to consider purchasing the hint for that problem. If you
do so, your score for that problem will then be halved.
- Use this feature wisely; hints are expensive. If you
feel you have made almost no progress on a problem and are headed for
a very low score on it, the hint should boost your chances of scoring
more.
- If you do decide to purchase a hint, you should first judge
whether you have enough time left to work on the problem after seeing
the hint.
- Please note that the hints have been prepared in advance and
cannot be customized.
