Comments

This is probably the easiest exam I've given in nearly 20 years of teaching. That said, it did a pretty good job of testing you. Questions 11 and 12 had a pretty big impact on your score, but that was intentional, since there was not a huge amount of code reading/writing on the exam.

The ranges of grades are below. I am not breaking up grades into "B+" or "A-". Instead, I simply break them up into ABCD, and use those scores to calculate your final scores. When I get the final scores, I will break up the B's into A-/B+/B, and the C's into B-/C+/C.


Tukey Plots


This is a Tukey Plot, which has lines to the max and min, yellow box denoting the 1st and 3rd quartiles, hash marks at the median, and dot at the mean.

In the "answers and grading", there are histograms of scores for each question.
