BashouT5816ySurely this is going to lead to five minutes of shuffling through paper every time you think you have something relevant on your print outs..
-
@BashouT Oh no, I have them as files since we do take the exam on a laptop, so I can ctrl+F my way through :)

@irene It's a functional programming exam in Scala, I often confuse different List operators and don't want to get stuck when using +: and ++ etc. Luckily the exam focusses on functional programming concepts and not the language itself
I don't think I'll necessarily need those pdf's though, but just in case :) -
neriald14526y@irene so is faster for syntax check, in documentation I always end up reading different sections even after I find the answer.

Gablern776yI think it was wget witch has an option that you download "count" subtrees from the given domain - I downloaded like the complete tree of Ubuntu Users
Professor: You may use all the offline material on your computer while taking the exam
Me: Downloads 50 stack overflow and tutorials point pages as PDF just in case I get an error I can't solve or forget basic syntax
At least we don't have to do it on paper...
I hate the thought of getting stuck on something that would require 5 seconds of Googling to solve during an exam :/
