Assignment #4 Prepare a final exam

 

This is an individual assignment which is designed to help you prepare for the final exam.

 

Create a 10-question multiple choice test with answer key.

 

One question should come from the material covered in each of the 10 weeks.

 

The questions should seek to evaluate the test takers understanding of the concepts in the course rather than simply asking questions that could be answered by memorizing a list.
