#!/usr/bin/env python # coding: utf-8 # # Lecture 22: Q&A Session, Part 3 # # CSCI 1360E: Foundations for Informatics and Analytics # ## Final Exam # The final exam will come out at **midnight on Tuesday, August 2.** # It will remain available until **11:59pm on Wednesday, August 3.** # You can "Fetch" the exam anytime during that interval. Once you click "Fetch", you have **3 hours to submit to JupyterHub** (unless otherwise specified). # ### Material # Anything we've covered this semester is fair game, from the first day to the last. # That said, the mechanics will focus more on the second half: probability, statistics, linear algebra, and machine learning. Doing these things arguably requires skills acquired in the first half. # ### Format # Same as the midterm: a Jupyter notebook, hosted on JupyterHub. # Some portions of the final will be autograded, but most won't be. # Unlike the midterm, the questions in the final exam are very much cumulative: that is, the later parts of the questions build on the previous parts. This is intentional: data science pipelines very much rely on long-term, iterative development that builds on early contributions. # ### Internets # Same as the midterm: **please don't use the internet**. Things that are ok to use: # - JupyterHub # - Lecture slides # - Prior assignments # - Slack # Obviously I can't directly observe while you're taking the final, so it's honor system. # With respect to Slack, I will be available to answer technical questions you run into on the final. I will try to answer questions as they come, but I will explicitly make myself available on **Tuesday from 9am to 5pm** and on **Wednesday from 11am to 2pm**. Outside those ranges I'll respond as quickly as I can, but no guarantees. # ## Course Evaluations # Sweet, sweet vengeance! Also a phenomenal opportunity to help improve the course. # This is the **first time** CSCI 1360 has ever been taught, so I appreciate everyone's patience this semester as we worked out the wrinkles. If you have any suggestions for future iterations of the course, please use the link below! # http://eval.franklin.uga.edu # ## Course Administrivia # If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask on Slack! That's what it's for. # ### Good luck! It's been a pleasure working with you this semester.
