Go to RPI CS Day Oct 20; no class Oct 19; no homework due Oct 25

1. There will be no class next Thurs Oct 19. 2. Instead, I encourage you to attend the RPI CS Day on Fri Oct 20, which will have 4 world-famous computational geometers. See the course home page 3. There is no homework this week since you spent so much time studying for the midterm.

Description of the midterm exam questions

The midterm exam has 1 question from each of the first 17 powerpoint slide sets, and zero or one question from each other page that I link to on the course web site, making 21 equal-weight questions. The questions generally require short answers, e.g., "What happens when you irradiate polywater with N-rays?" Some may have tricks designed to benefit people who understand the topic and to catch people doing superficial pattern matching. A few may require a little extra searching, but this is an open book exam. The exam should be easy if you study.
