Review for Quiz 1

Functions and documentation

It is recommended to review these topics:

• Documentation elements (description, arguments, returns, errors)
• Defining functions with types
• Conditionals and iteration
• None and Optional

Unit testing

It is recommended to review these topics:

• Using assert and reading its test output
• Using pytest.raises() and reading its test output
• Identifying test cases

We will not ask you to test functions that print things or take user input on the exam.

Git

It is recommended to review these topics:

• What is a repo? What is remote / local?
• git clone <url> copies the remote repo to your computer
• git add <filename> stages the changes in the file, and git add . stages all changes in the directory
• git commit -m "message" commits the staged changes
• git push pushes all local commits to the remote repo
• git pull copies all commits from the remote repo to your local repo which are not already there

Solution to Practice Quiz 1

If you use 2026 Spring's Practice Quiz 1, please keep in mind that we used unittest instead of pytest for testing, so the format may look different for the third question.
