Scores:
 |
- The 2020 MC is the one I took last trimester
- I scored a 66/70 on the 2021 exam
- This is a sizeable increase from last trimester in terms of percent
Test Corrections:
Q8
| 
|
- Here I was confused about the word redundant
- I am skibidi
- Spaced out and forgot what it meant and tried to guess
Q16
| 
|
- I had no idea what a Creative Commons Licsnsce was
- I know what to study now
Q55
| 
|
- I tried to do this in my head, instead of writing it out
- I also tried to guess what would happen and hence got confused
Q64
| 
|
- Also tried to see if I could use a short cut and not try and understand the code
- Just tried to use logic and proccess of elimination but honestly didn’t work
- Got humbled
Popcorn Hacks:
- Binary overflow is when the number trying to be represented is too large for the set number of binary digits we have. For example trying to add 1 to 11111111 (255)
- OR gate: def OR_gate(A, B): return A or B
AND gate: def AND_gate(A, B): return A and B
- def multiply(x, y): count = 0 result = 0 while count < y: result += x count += 1 return result
Reflection
- My coding and logic skills are improving and the 2021 MCQ was a good source of help
- The amount of coding I have done since last trimester has shown a steady increase in scores
- Working in teams was very helpful
- Some concepts/questions like where they give a broken code and I need to fix it
- I am pretty happy with where I am at right now in terms of knowledge and practice test scores
- I am excited to see how this year goes for my skills
