In-Class Activity to be completed in class (Please only fill out once).

(Course survey so I can assess at what speed to cover some material )

Typically in-class activities are at the end of class, graded, and then we review the answers right after so you get immediate feedback!

Note: For this activity everyone gets 100% for trying--do not worry if you do not know something or do not have experience with something a question is asking..

Mike Shah - Section 1

Take a moment to review the course website. From the course policies, check which of the following are true? *

If I ask for a regrade of assignment 1 after 5 weeks, unfortunately I cannot regrade it. I can however ask for regrades within 1 week of receiving a grade according to the policy.

I cannot get an A in this class by simply asking the instructor on the first day. I have to complete the work required (And it will be more satisfying to earn an A and learn! :) ).

Assignments that do not compile, unfortunately cannot be graded. Typically when we notice this, we will contact you, but that is not guaranteed. I will make sure my code compiles at the least!

Required

Have you been on a software engineering co-op before? (Or otherwise worked in industry) *

Yes, 6+ months of experience

Yes, 4+ months of experience

Not yet--but probably soon!

Have you used git before? *

Yes, I have used git and websites like github/gitlab/bitbucket/etc.

No to github, but yes to SVN/Mercurial/CVS/Perforce

I have never used any version control like git

What is your comfort level with C++? *

I am an expert (I have even read the C++ 20 standard)

I have used C++ quite a bit in another class/co-op/internship/work/etc.

I have read a C++ book or think I could pick it up quickly

C++ scares me

What is C++?

Required

Which of the following would you guess is the correct way of dynamically creating an int array in C++? *

int* intarray = new int[20];

int* intarray = new[20];

int* intarray = new [int * 20];

Is there a difference between "(*myobject).func();" and "myObject->func();" *

Yes

Maybe

Do you know what a pointer is? (Write a one-sentence description if you do--it is okay if you do not!) *

What is the meaning of: template <typename T> T min(T val1, T val2) {...};

This looks to be a C++ template for a min function that returns the minimum of two values. This is a style of 'generic programming'

This looks to be a C++ template for a specific data type called T that only computes the minimum value for that datatype.

I'm not 100% sure.
