Study Guide for Exam 1

The test will be open book and open notes.

Computer use WILL NOT be permitted.

Since the test will require hand-written answers, it is expected you will PRINT NEATLY. Sloppy hand-writing may result in a loss in points if I can't read it.

You will be given a short program that is full of errors. You will be required to identify the errors as follows:

1. The line number in which the error occurs
2. The nature of the error
3. The correction for the error
4. The type of error.

Familiarize yourself with:

The correct syntax for a simple Java program
How to write a class signature: public class SomeClass {}
How to write a method signature: scope returntype methodName(arg list) {}
Standard naming conventions for class files, methods, and variables
Rules for indentation

You will be given a short program with one or more assignment statements. You will be required to identify the values of variables as the program executes.
