I have 2 final exams this period.
First is for my OOP (object oriented programing ) aka C++ class on the 11th of June and a second exam for Developing Web apps with XML on the 17 of June.
I have been giving some though to a study plan for both Classes
- Arrange reference materials
- Search for past papers
- Make notes and review.
I have borrowed out an O'rielly text XML in a Nutshell 3rd edition from the Penrith library, for my OOP class I believe the supplied text 'Thinking in C++' As well as the lecture notes will be sufficient for the exam.
I have checked the UWS library past exam papers , but both classes do not have any contained in the database. This was not unexpected and is usual for the school of Information and Technology.
Now for the Study plan for XML, I will need to cover the following sections.
1. XML fundamentals
2. DTD's
3. Schemas
4. XSLT
5. XPath
6. XForms
7. XML DOM
Study Plan for C++(OOP)
1. Inheritance
2. Virtual functions
3. Constants
4. Class Declarations
5. Data-Types, pointers and references
6. STL and collections
I will have to review the code from the lecture as it will play an important role in the exam questions.
