CSC Exam Reviews

This is a collection of practice exams for some of the intro-level Computer Science classes at RIT, developed with ❤️ by the Computer Science Community.

Right now, this includes:

Intro to Computer Science (CSCI-141)
Computer Science II (CSCI-142)
Mechanics of Programming (CSCI-243)^{* currently deprecated}

Building

To build the PDFs, you'll need LaTeX, TeXlive-extra, graphviz and PGF/Tikz installed. You can generate the PDFs by executing make.

For example, on Ubuntu:

sudo apt-get install texlive-latex-base
sudo apt-get install texlive-latex-extra
make

Adding Questions

To add a question to an existing exam, create a new .tex file in the appropriate /questions directory. In the new .tex file, write the new question in the same style existing questions have been written. Then place the solution to the question in an answer environment.

The answer environment is set up so that it should provide enough room for the students to write in their answers. You can tailor how much space is given with \vspace{}.

Here is an example of what the new question file should look like:

What's the most exciting feature in Java?
    \begin{answer}
    Trick question: there's nothing exciting about Java.
    \end{answer}

Once that is done, you must add the new question file as input in the actual exam. To do this, add an \item at the desired location within the enumerate environment. Then include your questions as follows:

\begin{enumerate}
	...
	\item \input{questions/your_new_question.tex}
	...
\end{enumerate}

And that's it!
