• This will be a pass/fail lab with submissions via Autolab's web-based interface (rather than a submit-lab5 script).  No limit on submissions, but there's little point in submitting more than once.
• Work in a group of between 2 and 7 students.  Also, you may only work with one group (no bouncing between groups).
• All the work for this lab must be done collaboratively.  No single-student submissions will be accepted!
• As with lab3, each group will elect a single group member to be their secretary.  This person will record attendance, take notes, and make a single submission for the entire group.  The submission should be entered directly into Autolab's web-based submission interface for lab5.  In addition, the submission should be emailed to everyone else in the group.
• The submission must be a Python file named lab5.py.  The first lines must contain the names, andrew id's, and sections of everyone in the group.  Then, the file must contain the 28 sample problems (see below) along with their solutions.   The non-Python English text, when required, should be in comments or triple-quoted strings (your choice).  In any case, your file should be very clearly formatted so it is easy to find the problems and corresponding answers.
• Unlike lab3, however, everyone except the group secretary must also submit your own Python file named lab5.py, only in your Python file you'll include only the following:  your name and andrew id, the name and andrew id of everyone else in your group, and then the name and andrew id of the secretary of the group.  Make sure to clearly identify the secretary, since that will point us to the lab5.py which will determine your grade!

1. Logistics
   1. Group Members
      In a comment at the top of your lab5.py file, list all the group members you worked with.  List their names and andrew id's.  Do not skip this step.
   2. Start and End Times
      List the days, location, and start and end times of your group meetings.
       
2. Weeks 1-7 Review
   Lab5 is entirely devoted to midterm studying.  Your group (of up to 7 students, which is larger than normal, but happily evenly divides the # of weeks that the midterm covers, which also happens to be 7) should meet as a group for 4 hours, minimum (with no single meeting lasting longer than 2 hours), with this time devoted exclusively to studying as a group for the midterm.  To help you organize your studying, your group must create 28 sample study problems (4 problems each from weeks 1-7), along with solutions.  It may be best for group members to author their problems, if not also their solutions, prior to the group meetings, but this is not required.  What is required is that the entire group discuss all 28 problems and their solutions in detail, and always as a group.  Try to design problems that are about at the same difficulty level as quizzes (if you make your problems too easy or too hard, they’ll be much less useful).  Your group is depending on you to write really helpful study questions!  In any case, you do not have to be especially clever with your problems, but some cleverness is a good thing.  If you complete the 28 problems in less than 4 hours, then continue studying (always as a group!) the other available resources until your group has met for a minimum of 4 hours total.  Of course, your group may elect to continue meeting beyond 4 hours, if you are so inclined.  :-)
