LabTest 3 Impressions

Hey Guys,
I wrote the test yesterday, relatively hard, wish i studied JUST linked lists instead of the gui and recursion.
turns out the only thing on the test was linked lists and generic class
the test before that (Monday) did linked list with an equals() method..

I found it pretty misleading of Andrew and Turpin to tell us it would cover everything when it ended up covering linked lists specifically.
worries me quite alot, because now i have no idea if i should believe them about exam materials, etc.

anyways we had to make a listNode class and a LinkedList class
make them work
using a generic object to carry data
then make a test program which proves that it works, using string and integer values.

later
Jake

We had to cover the LinkedList using generics.Was pretty hard.

Was there any GUI in this test?

monday test was making equal methods for list nodes and linkedlist itself.
hard stuff...might fail!

The equals method is in the book by Savitch (Absolute Java) so I think if you read chapter 15 in this book.. this labtest would be easier for you...

no GUI

Did we have to write the entire code for linkedList using Generics?
Please help my test is on Thu..
Please..

And Was there any recurssion?

thursday test is set by turpin and completely different. I think they only focus on recursion.

Friday's lab test was all about recurssion.we had to write the factorial an reverse Number methodsusing recurssion.

that was so sneaky. Everyone above said there was no GUI and RECURSION

So i studied Linklists and Generics EXTRA HARD.

Fridays lab was ALL about RECURSION.

I ended up using forloops and while loops cuz i forget how to do recursion. My max score will be 60% ... i hate this class.
