    1. Given that you had the choice to work on one aspect that you wanted to become stronger, do you feel that you achieved that goal? Explain.
    2. Given that later on in the semester there will be a group project (which will have similarities in structure to AM4), what do you think a CS249 team should do to be successful in the project? What pitfalls should be avoided? What good practices should be cultivated?
    3. Was it worth it taking the "red pill"?
