INFORMATION ABOUT FINAL EXAM

This is information I had sent out to the class list.

#### TIME AND PLACE:

MONDAY, DECEMBER 16 2:00-3:50pm MAIN, ROOM 206

#### MATERIAL COVERAGE:

The final exam will cover basically all the material we discussed in class, emphasizing the stuff after the midterm. Remember that you can bring into the exam hall 4 sheets of 8.5"x11" notes. This is 8 pages of notes. Recall that your midterm allowed 2 sheets of such notes. You can reuse your notes from midterm if you like. Chapters 1-11 is considered "core material". You should know most of the stuff there and how to use them. In chapter 10 (addressing modes), just focus on sections 1,2 and 5. The following are the "advanced chapters" that I will test you on (you probably know them well from your final project):

- ch.12: text display and keyboard programming
- ch.13: basic macros (you can omit section 7)
- ch.14: memory management (focus on sections 2,3,4)
- ch.15: BIOS and interrupts (focus on sections 1 to 5)
- ch.16: color graphics (ignore section 6)

The final will be like the midterm in style, and in the amount of time to answer them. I may add a few True/False questions.
