Assessment 1 is MCQ. Each student will be given 6 questions, randomly selected from a pool of MCQ questions I have put. The duration of the assessment is 15 minutes. You will need a calculator. I have uploaded to MET website previous exams and their solutions. While previous exams were not MCQ, the MCQ question styles are not much different except that each MCQ asks for 1 answer. So, if you practice on problems based on lectures 7,8 , and 9, in previous exams, you should be able to do well tomorrow ISA.
Divide and Conquer 20/70, Greedy 20/70, DP 20/70, Asymptotic Analysis 10/70. In DP, you can use bottom up or top down. In Greedy question, you can provide English description. In other questions, you can either use pseudo code or code.
Practice assignments 1,2,3 and 5 solutions are updated.
Part C of assignment 1 extended to Nov. 28th, 11:50PM.
Please be careful, in the Intel specs I have used in class, a thread is seen as a "logical core" and not as Software threads. Each physical core has 2 logical cores. We'll talk about Software threads in the OS course.

one issue that arises from using java.awt.Polygon is that it does not implement the comparable interface, which will hinder your effort to sort a column of type Polygon. To solve this problem, define your own class that will internally retrieve the points from the passed Polygon. In that class, you can implement the interface comparable and consequently, you will need to add the method compareTo. To compare polygons, you can use the bounding box to get the enclosing rectangle and use the area of the rectangle, as follows: Dimension dim = poly1.getBounds( ).getSize( ); nThisArea = dim.width * dim.height;
Quiz 3 is on lectures 7,8 and 9. We will take best 2 out of 3
