Overview
It's all hands on deck between now and October 30th as we prepare for PCEP certification.

Classwork / Homework
As we discussed last class, we will have another PCEP practice test today, and this one will count. I have enough of these practice tests that I can give them to you any class period you want between now and October 30th.

Classwork
The grade distribution from practice test last class:
A: 0, B: 1, C: 6, D: 6, E: 1
does show a significant improvement from the previous test, but also shows how far we need to go to be ready two weeks from now to be ready to earn the PCEP certification. Here are the answers to the quiz:
1:d 2:e 3:a,d,e,g 4:b 5:c 6:a,b,d 7:b 8:c 9:c 10:b,c 11:e 12:a,c,d,e 13:b 14:b 15:b 16:c 17:a 18:a,d 19:c 20:e 21:d 22:a 23:b,d 24:b 25:c 26:a 27:b 28:b 29:c 30:a,b
So for the next two weeks, we will spend all of our available class and homework time working towards that goal.
We will use class time today to go over problems that were commonly missed, looking for the specific Python language features they evaluate.
Lastly, Jeff will be here Saturday from 9 am to 12 noon to give another practice test and go over it immediately after you take it.
Homework
If you haven't already done so, finish working your way through the Python Essentials 1 course.
Prepare questions for discussion in class on any Python language features with which you do not feel confident.
