This page provides material for this past exam, so that you can practise it in your own time.

The exam paper is here.

The C Quick Reference sheet is here, and instructions are here.

The seven template programs are:

The two data files are:

The auto-marker for question B2 uses a different data file:

Marking your attempts: We provide the automarker that was used to do the automatic part of the marking. To use it, make sure you are in the directory with your solutions, and do the command
/group/teaching/cp/Exam2014Dec-Automark/marker
It should take a few seconds (producing a lot of irrelevant messages). When it finishes, there will be a file marksheet.pdf in the directory, which you can read.

Please note: The automarker is not perfect. If it says you've got full marks on a question, you almost certainly have. However, if it says your mark is, say, 4/10, it's possible we might award more manually. (Note: This exam was marked under great time pressure, and the final corrections were done by humans rather than by modifying the automarker. If you think the automarker is not giving full marks to a correct answer, please contact Julian Bradfield, not Mary Cryan.)
