    • October 19, 2015 - I have now posted the questionnaire for Exam 2. It is a "take home" exam, and the ABSOLUTE deadline for submission is on October 26, 2015, 11:59pm. Read the instructions carefully. Exam 2 covers decidability and reducibility.

Have fun answering the exam (HAHAHAHAHAHA), stay safe, and see you next week! :)
