I can just use size 6 font on Word and do what I can for what gives me trouble. ----------------------------------- DanShadow Thu Jan 22, 2004 10:30 pm ----------------------------------- hmm...easy hints of things on tests: - finding errors in programs NOT on computers - the use of arrays - functions, procedures, process' - probably making certain programs using previously learned aspects - string manipulation (ord, word(3), etc.) - datafiles, saving and loading data - encryption - mouse work (mousewhere(x,y,b), etc.) - keyboard work (get,getch,hasch,input buffer,etc.) - canadian governmental military secrets to sell to russia. :roll: lol These kind of things I would think would be the hardest you would find on a grade 10 test. :) ----------------------------------- Tony Thu Jan 22, 2004 10:45 pm ----------------------------------- canadian governmental military secrets to sell to russia that's alright, we already bought everything we need. World domination date is set to be some time in the winter of 2004/2005 :twisted: ----------------------------------- DanShadow Thu Jan 22, 2004 11:01 pm ----------------------------------- AHHH!!

Me and him took the exam today (I'm in junior's class).... It was just writing a program today... second part is on monday, the written part (or the harder part). Ive read over other posts, looks like everyone's got some good ideas. I'm thinking there will be some multi-choice/true-false (finding errors inprograms, filling in blanks of programs, etc)...judging by my teacher's other tests. There is also some short answers i believe (from his outline)....probably just how to do some stuff. All we did was turing all year...kinda sucked. ----------------------------------- Cervantes Fri Jan 23, 2004 4:12 pm ----------------------------------- nono turing all year kicks ass... its doing word and excel and stuff like that that sucks..... ----------------------------------- shorthair Fri Jan 23, 2004 6:39 pm ----------------------------------- thats 174625486 floppy disks. ----------------------------------- aliveiswell Fri Jan 23, 2004 11:40 pm ----------------------------------- theres the same riddle just with hexadecimal: how many people can read hex if only you and dead people can read hex. (dead is hex and add one for you). i forget the answer and im too lazy to figure it out. ----------------------------------- Zorg Fri Jan 23, 2004 11:48 pm ----------------------------------- 10 in binary converts to 2 in decimal. so the joke says that there are only 2 types of people: those who understand binary, and those who don't. ----------------------------------- shorthair Sat Jan 24, 2004 12:43 am ----------------------------------- 2 BITS FOR ZORG ----------------------------------- McKenzie Sat Jan 24, 2004 12:55 am ----------------------------------- 57006 you know that the calculator on you computer converts right? ----------------------------------- Cervantes Sat Jan 24, 2004 12:28 pm ----------------------------------- lousy downloading the internet at 41.2 kb/s it would take me that 4100 years * about 20 :( :( ----------------------------------- CjGaughan Sun Jan 25, 2004 7:32 pm ----------------------------------- lousy downloading the internet at 41.2 kb/s it would take me that 4100 years * about 20 :( :( lol....maybe i'll invest in a T3 ;)...lmao
