Repository containing practice problems for DSC 80 (past exams and discussion). Hosted at practice.dsc80.com. Before using the repo, make sure you have the following packages installed:
- BeautifulSoup4
- pandoc
- lxml
Style guide for writing up problems:
- Answer: should be bolded followed by unbolded answer(s), comma separated if it fits on one line, or each answer on a new line if it doesn't fit on one line
- Use () for choose one, [] for select all. Add a space before the text of each answer choice.
- For subsubparts, use numbers followed by period to introduce each question
In translating from Latex to Markdown, there are a few easy find/replace things that help with a lot of things:
\begin{verbatim} --> py \end{verbatim} -->
" --> '
_ --> _
\texttt{ --> `
\textbf{ --> **
\textit{ --> *
\bubble --> ( )
\correctbubble --> ( )
\squarebubble --> [ ]
\correctsquarebubble --> [ ]
\begin{subprobset} -->
\end{subprobset} -->
\begin{subprob} --> # BEGIN SUBPROB
\end{subprob} --> # END SUBPROB
\begin{responsebox} --> # BEGIN SOLUTION
\end{responsebox} --> # END SOLUTION
\begin{soln} --> # BEGIN SOLUTION
\end{soln} --> # END SOLUTION
\bigskip -->
\noindent -->
Note: ( ) and [ ] need a space between the brackets. There should not be blank lines between options.
To explain up-front:
- All exams are individual (collaboration on exams is never allowed).
- What ( ) and [ ] mean. In their absence, students needed to write out code by hand.
- In-person means on-paper.
- Think of select-all questions as a sequence of true-false questions. Partial credit for these questions was assigned accordingly.
