AY2021 SEM 1 Qn4/5 Clarifications

Hey guys! Just wanted to double check whether questions 4 (functor) & 5 (LazyList)

from AY2021 sem 1 paper are not in our syllabus for this sem? Especially for LazyList, I am pretty confused on what exactly is tested? Do we just have to know how to read and interpret them (no implementation knowledge needed)?

Thanks guys and good luck for tomorrow!

Hi! You can refer to issues #319 and #335 . Functors is in Lecture 12 while LazyList is in the second half of Lecture 10 and both aren't tested for our sem.

As for the second half of your question... I guess you could do that for your knowledge/understanding but since they won't be tested for finals I don't think it'll be fair to require us to interpret it

Yes, Functors and Monads are not tested for Finals! Hmm I believe we need to know how to implement them, aka those map, flatMap, predicate methods that are used in Optional, CompletableFuture and Streams.

yes those questions are not tested as they are in Lect 10 (2nd half) and Lect 12.

I also got a little confused, glad to hear these aren't tested!
