That's how I read it to Trav

I read it that the numbers go in the location corresponding to their remainder after being divided by 5, so:

[0]
[1] 11 (Already given)
[2] 17
[3] 23 | 8 | 13
[4]
[5]

Obviously this is vertical in the exam, so the top 3 boxes under index 3 are filled.

Would that have been correct? I agree that I’d never seen a question like it before, but I suppose there are only so many ways you can ask a question about associative arrays.

Cheers

Anyone have an answer for the hash table question?

I agree I thought the exam overall was pretty good, only some issues with the questions already identified – MC Q6,13 SA Q4

Thanks Mark.

Had a quick look over the exam.
I like Section C of the exam. Good questions.
Multiple choice are pretty good too.

My query though, is about Section B, Q 4.
This regards Hash functions. However I could only find one, optional reference to hash tables in the Study Design. Elsewhere it refers to data structures as being ones that are relevant to the selected language.

I’ve pasted the excerpt below… can anyone clarify whether when the Study Design say ‘or’, it actually means ‘and’ ?
Hence my surprise that it was on the exam.

Thoughts welcome :)

Hi all

Paula says there is no second paper, so the fur can start flying immediately.
