CS253 Final Review Guide
There will be no questions only from the book, all of them were covered in lecture at some point, and most were practiced in some way in lab or projects. Open book, open computer, open Internet, NOT open friend.
Commands which appear somewhere on the test (something like this, I haven't written the test, I'll update it)
- sh
- chmod
- cd
- cat
- grep
- wc
- sed
- sort
- uniq
- alias
- echo
- export
- aespipe
- zip
- tar
- ls
- env
C programming will be covered! Topics may include:
- Calling system functions (project 2)
- C strings (project 1)
- Files and file descriptors (project 3)
- Pointers (various labs)
- Debugging, maybe, ones you can find
- Could be a question about fork/exec or pipes
Format: It will be a lot like the midterm. Probably 6-12 questions, I won't try to make a time crunch, it might end up happening anyway.
