The final exam will consist of a written part only and will be taken in class on Friday, Dec. 10 from 8:00-10:00AM.

The final exam will cover Chapters 1-5 of text and all the lectures except Lecture on Dec.1. However, emphasis will be on material covered since Midterm, i.e., functions, arrays, strings, pointers.

The exam will consists of some multiple choice questions, questions involving short answers, i.e., a name, a definition, a few lines of C++ code, and code for short functions.

To review for the midterm look over lecture notes, text and programming assignments 1-6. Listed below are important topics which you should know for the midterm.

LOOK OVER REVIEW FOR MIDTERM -- LECTURE NOV. 1

FUNCTIONS

Modular design and functions

User-defined functions

Function header: provides data interface for function
void function
Actual arguments vs. formal parameters
Value vs. reference parameters
Function prototypes
Scoping out variables and constants

You should be familiar with functions discussed in lecture, e.g.,

ProgramPurpose()
Square()
RepeatSymbol()
GetData()
Hypotenuse()
DisplayResults()
Average()
Cube()
SumCubes()

Be familiar with recursive functions discussed in class, e.g.,

Factorial()
ChangeBase()
ReverseString()

ARRAYS

One-dimensional arrays

Declaration of a one-dimensional array
Direct access of array elements
Input to an array
Displaying an array

Implementing a list using an array
Input of a list
Displaying a list

Be familiar with the functions involving arrays discussed in class, e.g.,

GetGrades()
Average()

Searching Lists

Sequential Search

Insertion Sort
Bubble Sort

Declaring a string
Inputting and displaying strings
Inputting strings with whitespace: using cin.getline()
Inputting mixed string and numeric data: using ignore()
List of strings
Inputting a list of strings until null string is encountered

Definition of a pointer
Declaring a pointer variable object
Accessing contents of the location pointed to by pointer
Pass by reference using pointers

GOOD LUCK!
