  2. Exam Format • 90 Total Points • 40 Points Writing Programs • 25 Points Tracing Algorithms and determining results • 10 Points Short Answer • 20 Points Fill in the Blank • All point totals are approximations • Similar to programming assignments and programs from lecture

  3. Example Programming Problem • Write a program that reads a number of golf scores followed by that number of scores from a file named “scores.txt” Total the scores as you read them in and print out the average score to the screen. (Note: This problem is more difficult than the problems on the exam.)

  4. Example Tracing Problem • What will the EXACT output of the following program be? int foo = 9; string str = "Hey!"; float foo2 = 5.7; foo2 = foo - foo2; if (foo > foo2) cout << "Hello!"; else if (foo < foo2) cout << foo2; else cout << foo; cout << endl; cout << "foo2 is: " << foo2 << endl;
