Information about Quiz #3

Quiz #3 will be held at the start of class on Monday, March 21, 2016.
It will focus on the creation and manipulation of 2D and 3D primitives, based on the material from Tutorials 5, 8, and 9.

The commands and operators that will be tested are the following:

Manipulate,ControlType,Graphics,Line, Circle, Disk, Polygon,EdgeForm,Translate,Rotate,Scale,BSplineCurve,Graphics3D,Tube,Cuboid,PolyhedronData,GraphicsComplex,RegionPlot,RegionPlot3D

What to expect in the quiz:

You will have access to the computer and the internet, including tutorials and any materials you prepare yourself.

Questions will be answered using pencil/pen and paper.

Your answers may be Mathematica code, sentences, or paragraphs.

You will have to know the syntax of each of these commands, which means knowing the number and types of inputs that must be provided inside the brackets, knowing the type of output that is provided (for example, a list, a number, or something else), and writing a brief description of what the command does.

You will be expected to analyze some simple code and explain what would happen if Mathematica evaluates it.

You will be expected to write down some simple code that performs a requested function.

You may have a piece of code that is written incorrectly and be asked to modify it so that it works correctly.
