[Year 12 SofDev] 2017 Software Dev Examination Report is out

[Paragreen, Chris J]

Hi Neil,

There are two problems with the algorithm described in the pseudocode.
Firstly, it requires top-up to be true, regardless of whether there is enough money to pay for the fare.
Secondly, it requires that the balance must be greater than $5, not greater than or equal to.

Regards,

Chris

Can someone take a look at Question 8a in Section C, and either enlighten me or confirm the error.  In test 4 the account balance is 5 and topup False, I would expect the result to be “valid_booking = True”, as there is enough money in the account to pay for the ticket.

Look forward to the replies.

Neil.

Multiple choice Q10 was marked as ambiguous. That's great and all but what about critical path question? You know that concept that wasn't examinable that was in the exam...

The list has been pretty quiet about this (there's usually some robust and healthy discussion around it) but I just noticed that the Examination Report is out on the VCAA website.
