Today I wrote test 3, and found no problems with it; it seemed fairly straight forward. I thought there might be a pumping lemma question on it, but it was mostly material covered in the last assignment.
I think the exam might be more tricky than anything we've been exposed to so far (just a hunch). I plan on looking over all material covered in assignment, problem sets and lecture. I think my weaknesses lie within the last section (CFGs) and maybe correctness and structural induction.
As this is my last post, I thought I might reflect back upon the course in general. I actually found it to be a little challenging at first. I made some mistakes in the approaches I initially took and did not have good vision for what the proofs should look like. I think I've gone a good distance towards developing a bit of that vision. Rather than getting scared at the thought of writing induction proofs, I enjoy trying to construct them. Of course, I realize this course might be relatively easy compared to other more advanced math/CS courses. But its definitely peaked my interest in the field. I thank Danny and the T.A.s for helping guide me through my initial troubles and showing me different ways to approach a given problem.
