Before you begin the Midterm, you will be presented with instructions:

This is the midterm exam for CS350.

This test is open-book, open-notes, open course website (and to any documents that are directly linked from the website). You have 90 minutes for this exam.

If you lose your network connection or otherwise be disconnected before your time is up, you should make immediate note of the time and circumstances of the problem, send that to me as an email as soon as possible. Then attempt to reconnect and resume the exam. Take note of the time at which you were able to resume. You may work past the 90 minute timer (which will have continued counting down) for an appropriate amount of time reflecting the time you were unable to re-connect. Follow up with an email letting me know when you were able to reconnect and finish. I will take this under advisement in deciding whether to accept late answers.

You are subject to the usual ODU honor code as regards this exam. Specifically,

Because students are taking this exam at different times (and because special arrangements may be made with some due to illness, etc.), you must not discuss the contents of the exam with your classmates until after the exam has been graded and the scores posted.
