Hi all. I've done a first stab at a post mortem of section A at <a href="http://www.vceit.com/postmortems/2011ita/ita2011.htm">http://www.vceit.com/postmortems/2011ita/ita2011.htm</a><br><br>As for A13, it smells like a software development question rather than ITA. It's based on ASCII code sorting and is not really the sort of thing ITA kids every experience. When I first saw it, I had to check the cover of the exam to make sure it wasn't an SD paper..<br>
