Comment Same problem with AP CompSci Exam (Score 1) 728

I completely agree. It is idiotic to ask someone to write code completely right the first time on paper. I took the AB CompSci exam, and though I pulled a 4, I was annoyed that they had asked me to write out this complicated piece of code on paper. When you code, you dont sit down to some paper and start writing code. No, you sit down to a computer (after skeching out some ideas)and start writing code. Then you compile, see if it works, and if it doesnt, you go back and try and fix the problem and compile again. On paper, you cant do that.
