Instructions to students
This is a SAMPLE EXAM intended as a study aid.
The questions are of a similar style to and cover some of the same topics as the real exam.
The exam is formatted similarly to the real exam.
There are six questions with a total of 79 marks available.
The number of marks available for a question should be a rough guide as to how long you spend on it.
If you need clarification on some part of a question, you can ask on the Moodle Discussion Forum or come
to consultation.Page 3 of 10
Question 1 – (6 + 6 = 12 marks)
You have joined a team that is working on a fully-featured version of the game similar to the one
you worked on in your assignments, complete with a graphical user interface. It is to be released
commercially. The plan is to re-use the engine code for similar games in the future.
The game runs reasonably well, but when you look at the engine code you discover that it contains
a lot of “cut-and-paste reuse” – that is, repeated similar sequences of code, sometimes with a few
very small changes.
a) Why do software engineers consider repeated code to be a bad thing? Write a
paragraph or two about the risks of cut-and-paste reuse. (6 marks)
b) Describe how you would go about fixing the code to reduce these risks. (6 marks)
