Justification for the above scores

Scores were adjusted according to the following:

  • Question One: Was probably the weakpoint of the session, there was a lot to read and process. The biggest issue here is that not everything fitted on a single page, therefore it made life somewhat difficult for us. This was a bit of a pity as it was a very good question that covered a lot of important topics.
  • Question Two: Good Question, nicely presented and very relevant.
  • Question Three: Some very important concepts covered here in this question, although I feel that the explanation wasn't completely clear. Good question nonetheless.
  • Question Four: Certainly an interesting question, got me thinking, but I do slightly doubt the usefulness of it. Learning the behavior of null variables does not really add an awful lot in my opinion, as most such errors are picked up quite easily during compile time.
  • Crossword: Very nice idea, got everyone involved and pulled up the much needed enthusiasm. The polymorphism question was a tad dodgy as it asked for a variable (polymorphism is not a variable..), and some words that stood alone is just a crosswording no no. But those are minor quibbles, I really liked the fact that this group thought outside the box.
  • Overall: Much more enjoyable and organised than last weeks group. Hopefully a sign of good things to come from other groups.

One aspect of the session that was particularly good

  • The crossword, basically the saving grace of an otherwise dire session (in general). The main questions also were solid and actually doable.

One part of the session that could have been improved

  • Question one's length.
