%
% \begin{abstract}
% This document class allows you to create Otago University final
% examination papers using \LaTeXe\@. It implements the major formatting
% requirements specified by the University, provides useful
% macros to ease the process of building the title page and automatically
% deals with fiddly little issues such as question and section numbering,
% the number of pages in the paper, printing ``\textbf{TURN OVER}'' in the
% bottom right corner of every page except the last one and ensuring that the
% total number of marks for a question adds up to the expected number.

% \section{Overview}
%
% \changes{2.0}{2002/01/11}{NJS Added note on backwards compatibility.}
% \subsection{Important note on backwards compatibility}
%
% Version 2.0 of \textsf{ouexam} introduces several major changes from earlier
% versions. Consequently, documents created using an earlier version of
% \textsf{ouexam} are \emph{incompatible} with version 2.0 or later. Versions 2.0
% and greater of \textsf{ouexam} will detect attempts to process version 1.x
% document and display an error message.
%
% The older version (1.2) is still available and can be downloaded from the same
% location as the current version. To process older version documents, just copy
% the version 1.2 |ouexam.cls| file into the same directory as the document file.
% \TeX\ searches the current directory first, so this copy will take precedence
% over any other installed version of \textsf{ouexam}.
%
%
% \subsection{Class options}
%
% This document class is based on the \textsf{article} class and accepts any of
% the options accepted by \textsf{article}. The default options are
% \textsf{onecolumn}, \textsf{oneside}, \textsf{a4paper} and \textsf{12pt}.
% Normally the only one you might want to change is the last one.
% In addition, \textsf{ouexam} accepts the following ``native'' class options:
% \begin{description}
% \item[\textsf{draft}] \DescribeMacro{draft} This option has the usual
% effects that you would expect for \textsf{draft} mode in the
% \textsf{article} class, plus \fbox{DRAFT} is printed in
% the header of every page. Note that if you use the \textsf{graphicx}
% package and turn on the \textsf{draft} option in \textsf{ouexam}, all
% included graphics will be drawn in draft mode unless you specify the
% |draft=false| option to \cs{includegraphics}.
%
% \item[\textsf{markingschedule}] \DescribeMacro{markingschedule} This option
% Rather than write a separate marking schedule for an examination paper, you
% can use the \textsf{marking} environment to embed marking information
% within questions (see
% \hyperref[Sec:Questions:Marking]{section~\ref*{Sec:Questions:Marking}}).
% By default this information is not printed (for obvious reasons!), but
% when it comes time to print a marking schedule for the examination,
% including the \textsf{markingschedule} class option in the
% \cs{usepackage} command will cause \textsf{ouexam} to print the hidden
% content. It will also print \fbox{MARKING SCHEDULE} in the footer of
% every page.
% \end{description}
%
%
% \subsection{Required packages}
%
% This class requires the \textsf{verbatim} package in order to implement
% the marking schedule functionality.
%
%
% \subsection{Page margins}
%
% This class assumes A4 paper. You will probably get weird results if you try
% to do anything different. The margins are set up as follows: top and bottom
% 2cm (headers and footers are inside this margin), left and right 2.54cm (1in).
%
%
% \subsection{Page styles}
%
% There are three page styles defined in this class:
% \begin{description}
% \item[\textsf{plain}] \DescribeMacro{plain} This is a slight modification
% of the \textsf{plain} page style from \textsf{article}. It produces pages
% that have the page number centered at the top, the paper number in the top
% right corner and the text ``\textbf{TURN OVER}'' in the bottom right. This
% is the default page style.
%
% \item[\textsf{lastpage}] \DescribeMacro{lastpage} This is similar to
% \textsf{plain} but without the ``\textbf{TURN OVER}''. It is used for the
% last page of the examination. You normally will not have to use this
% yourself---the class should take care of it automatically. The class does
% however occasionally seem to get confused, so there may times when you have
% to set the page style of the last page manually. It will be fairly obvious
% when you need to do this---the usual effect is that the last page
% has``\textbf{TURN OVER}'' printed on it when it should not.
%
% \item[\textsf{titlepage}] \DescribeMacro{titlepage} This is similar to
% \textsf{plain} but without the page header, and is used for the title page
% of the paper. As with \textsf{lastpage}, you will normally not use this
% yourself, because the \cs{maketitlepage} macro handles this automatically
% (see \hyperref[Sec:TitlePage]{section~\ref*{Sec:TitlePage}}).
% \end{description}
%
%
% \section{Writing an examination paper}
%
%
% \subsection{Sections}
% \label{Sec:Sections}
%
% Examination papers may have multiple sections, ``numbered'' A, B, \ldots.
% Rather than redefine the existing section macros, this class defines an
% \DescribeEnv{examsection} \textsf{examsection} environment\footnote{Note that
% the old \cs{newsection} macro has been retained for backwards compatibility
% with earlier development versions of \textsf{ouexam}. The \textsf{examsection}
% environment replaces this macro and should be used in all new documents.} that
% generates a new section. The \textsf{examsection} environment has three
% mandatory arguments:
% \begin{enumerate}
% \item The expected number of marks for the question. If you leave this
% argument empty it defaults to zero. \textsf{ouexam} keeps a running total
% of the \emph{actual} number of marks encountered within a section, which is
% compared with the value of this argument when the environment is closed.
% An error is raised if the values are not equal. The running total is also
% typeset right-justified in the form ``\textbf{[SECTION A TOTAL 20 MARKS]}''
% as an additional verification.
%
%
% \item Instructions for answering questions in this section (such as
% ``Answer any TWO questions.''). If you leave this argument empty it
% defaults to ``ANSWER ALL QUESTIONS.''.
%
% \item A description of the topic of the section. This can be left
% empty.
% \end{enumerate}
% Every section begins on a new page, and the section title is formatted as
% ``\textbf{\underline{Section A}}'', in \cs{large} size. For example: \\
%
% \noindent|\begin{examsection}{25}{}{These questions are remarkably boring.}| \\
% \hspace*{1cm}\vdots \\
% |\end{examsection}| \\
%
% \noindent will produce the following (assuming that the actual number of
% marks in the question is correct):
%
% \begin{center}
% \fbox{%
% \begin{minipage}{0.9\columnwidth}
% {\large\noindent\textbf{\underline{Section~A}}} \\[0.5\baselineskip]
% ANSWER ALL QUESTIONS. \\
% These questions are remarkably boring. \\
% \hspace*{2cm}\vdots \\
% \mbox{}\hfill\textbf{[SECTION A TOTAL 25 MARKS]}
% \end{minipage}
% }
% \end{center}
%
%
% \subsection{Questions}
% \label{Sec:Questions}
%
% \textsf{ouexam} provides three environments for building examination
% questions: \DescribeEnv{question} \textsf{question},
% \DescribeEnv{subquestion} \textsf{subquestion} and \textsf{subsubquestion},
% which correspond to top-level questions, parts of questions, and
% \DescribeEnv{subsubquestion} sub-parts of questions respectively. They
% produce questions that are numbered according to University examination
% formatting requirements. Note that questions are normally numbered
% sequentially throughout the entire paper regardless of any section
% boundaries.
%
% All three environments have a single mandatory argument which is the
% expected number of marks for the question, part or sub-part. If this
% argument is left empty it will default to zero. This argument works in much
% the same way as the first argument to the \textsf{examsection} environment
% (see \hyperref[Sec:Sections]{section~\ref*{Sec:Sections}}): \textsf{ouexam}
% keeps a running total of the number of marks encountered within each
% question part and sub-part, and compares this total with the expected value
% when the environment closes. Where appropriate, the running total is
% typeset right-justified in the form ``(5 marks)''. For example:
% \begin{verbatim}
% \begin{question}{5}
% \begin{subquestion}{2}
% Why is the sky blue?
% \end{subquestion}
% \begin{subquestion}{3}
% Explain in detail how the sky can be made pink.
% \end{subquestion}
% \end{question}
% \begin{question}{1}
% Define the term ``floccinaucinihilipilification''.
% \end{question}
% \end{verbatim}
%
% \newpage\noindent will produce the following:
% \begin{center}
% \fbox{%
% \begin{minipage}{0.9\columnwidth}
% \begin{enumerate}
% \item
% \begin{enumerate}
% \item Why is the sky blue? \hfill (2 marks)
%
% \item Explain in detail how the sky can be made pink. \hfill (3
% marks)
% \end{enumerate}
%
% \item Define the term ``floccinaucinihilipilification''. \hfill (1
% mark)
% \end{enumerate}
% \end{minipage}
% }
% \end{center}
%
% The \textsf{question} environments handle formatting of marks totals
% automatically, including considerations such as:
% \begin{itemize}
% \item whether or not to print the number of marks for a question at all
% (they should not be printed if the question has sub-parts);
%
% \item whether to print ``mark'' or ``marks'' (e.g., question 2 above); and
%
% \item where to position the number of marks relative to the question,
% depending on how full the last line of the question is.
% \end{itemize}
%
%
% \subsection{Marking schedule information}
% \label{Sec:Questions:Marking}
%
% Rather than writing a separate marking schedule for an examination paper,
% you can use the \DescribeEnv{marking} \textsf{marking} environment to embed
% marking information within questions. By default this information is not
% printed (for obvious reasons!), but when it comes time to print a marking
% schedule for the examination, use the \textsf{markingschedule} class option
% to print the hidden content. The marking information will be printed in
% \emph{italics} to differentiate it from the main body of the examination,
% and \fbox{MARKING SCHEDULE} will also be printed in the footer of every
% page.
%
%
% \subsection{The title page}
% \label{Sec:TitlePage}
%
% This class defines a collection of macros that let you fill in the various
% parts of the examination title page. This is analogous to the process you use
% to generate the title of a document in, for example, the \textsf{article} class
% (using \cs{title}, \cs{author}, \cs{date} and \cs{maketitle}). That is, you
% issue the macros described below in the document preamble, then issue a
% \cs{maketitlepage} in the document body.
%
% The \DescribeMacro{\examyear} \cs{examyear} macro lets you specify the year
% in which the examination is being held, for example, |\examyear{1999}|. This
% macro is mandatory.
%
% The \DescribeMacro{\department} \cs{department} macro lets you specify the
% name of the department that produced the examination paper, for example,
% |\department{Information| |Science}|. This macro is mandatory.
%
% The \DescribeMacro{\papernumber} \cs{papernumber} macro lets you specify the
% paper number that the examination is for, for example,
% |\papernumber{COMP 101}|. This macro is mandatory. \textbf{Warning:} Do not make
% the paper number string too long or it will overlap the page number. Be
% particularly careful when you specify semester information using \cs{semester},
% because this is appended to the paper number in the page header. For example,
% if you specify |\papernumber{COMP 101}| and |\semester{2}|, the header will
% contain ``COMP 101 (Semester Two)'' rather than just ``COMP 101''. The worst
% case you will need to consider in such situations is a special examination,
% which inserts the text ``(Special Examination)'' after the paper number.
%
% The \DescribeMacro{\papertitle} \cs{papertitle} macro lets you specify the
% title of the paper, for example,
% |\papertitle{Systems Analysis and Design Methods}|. This macro is mandatory.
%
% Some papers are offered in more than one semester. The
% \DescribeMacro{\semester} \cs{semester} macro lets you specify which semester
% the examination is for. The argument can be either ``1'' or ``2'' for semesters
% 1 and 2, ``SS'' for summer school or ``SP'' for a special examination, for
% example, |\semester{2}|. Invalid values for the argument cause a warning to be
% raised. This macro is optional---if you omit it, no semester information is
% generated.
%
% The \DescribeMacro{\timeallowed} \cs{timeallowed} macro lets you specify the
% length of the examination in hours, for example, |\timeallowed{2}|. This
% macro is optional---if you omit it, it defaults to three (3) hours.
%
% If calculators are allowed in the examination, use the
% \DescribeMacro{\allowcalculators} \cs{allowcalculators} macro. This macro is
% optional---if you omit it, a sentence is printed saying that calculators
% are \emph{not} allowed.
%
% The \DescribeMacro{\instructions} \cs{instructions} macro lets you specify
% instructions on how candidates should complete the
% examination, for example, |\instructions{Answer ALL| |questions.}|. This macro
% is optional. Note that the content of the instructions can be just about
% anything. It is up to you to control formatting, such as how you want lines
% broken, etc. This also true of the \cs{material}, \cs{copiesof} and
% \cs{otherinstructions} macros described below.
%
% The \DescribeMacro{\material} \cs{material} macro lets you specify any
% additional material that candidates are provided in addition to the
% examination paper itself, for example, |\material{SQL schema definition}|.
% This macro is optional.
%
% The \DescribeMacro{\copiesof} \cs{copiesof} macro lets you specify any
% material that candidates are allowed to bring into the examination, for
% example, |\copiesof{McFadden &| |Hoffer, 5th edition}|. This macro is
% optional.
%
% The \DescribeMacro{\otherinstructions} \cs{otherinstructions} macro lets you
% specify any other instructions not covered by any of the above, for example,
% |\otherinstructions{No smoking| |allowed.}|. This macro is optional.
%
% Once you have specified the content of the title page using the above
% macros, you simply issue a \DescribeMacro{\maketitlepage} \cs{maketitlepage}
% to generate the front page of the examination (cf. \cs{maketitle}). The title
% page generated meets University formatting requirements.
% Note that the number of pages in the examination paper is generated
% and inserted into the title page automatically---you do not need to specify
% it manually.
%
%
% \subsection{Miscellaneous}
%
% Most examinationss are marked out of 100, and \textsf{ouexam} defaults to
% this. However, if you want an examination that is marked out of some other
% number, for example, 90 marks, you can specify this using the
% \DescribeMacro{\examoutof} \cs{examoutof} macro. Thus, |\examoutof{90}|
% will set the expected number of marks for the examination to 90. This value
% is used by \textsf{ouexam} to verify that the marks for all the questions
% add up to the expected number of marks for the examination.
%
%
% \section{Errors and warnings}
%
% In this section are described the error messages and warning produced by
% \textsf{ouexam}, and the reasons why they occur.
%
%
% \subsection{Error messages}
%
% \noindent\texttt{INCOMPATIBLE (\ldots): this document was written for an
% earlier} \\
% \texttt{version of ouexam \ldots} \\
% You are trying to use v2.0 or later of \textsf{ouexam} with a document that
% was written for \textsf{ouexam} v1.2 or earlier. Versions 2.0 and later of
% \textsf{ouexam} are \emph{fundamentally incompatible} with earlier
% versions. The only solutions here are either to revert to \textsf{ouexam}
% v1.2 or earlier (you can put a copy of the class file in the same directory
% as the document), or rewrite the document to conform to the current version
% of \textsf{ouexam}. You should be able to download a copy of v1.2 from the
% same location that you found the current version. \\
%
% \noindent\texttt{no \cs{examyear} was specified} \\
% \noindent\texttt{no \cs{department} was specified} \\
% \noindent\texttt{no \cs{papernumber} was specified} \\
% \noindent\texttt{no \cs{papertitle} was specified} \\
% You have not specified one of these macros. All four of these macros are
% mandatory and must be included in the preamble of any \textsf{ouexam}
% document. \\
%
%
% \subsection{Warnings}
%
% \noindent\texttt{actual number of marks for exam (\ldots) does not match
% expected} \\
% \texttt{number of marks (\ldots)} \\
% The actual number of marks supplied for the whole examination (calculated
% by summing the marks for all the questions) is not the same as the expected
% total for the examination. Adjust the marks for the questions until the
% totals match. \\
%
% \noindent\texttt{actual mark (\ldots) for section \ldots\ does not match
% expected} \\
% \texttt{mark (\ldots)} \\
% The actual number of marks supplied for a particular section (calculated by
% summing the marks for all the questions in that section) is not the same as
% the expected total for that section. Adjust the marks for the questions in
% the section concerned until the totals match. The section number is given
% in the warning. \\
%
% \noindent\texttt{actual mark (\ldots) for question \ldots\ does not match
% expected} \\
% \texttt{mark (\ldots)} \\
% The actual number of marks supplied for a particular question (calculated
% by summing the marks of all its sub-parts) is not the same as the expected
% total for that question. Adjust the marks for the sub-parts of the
% question until the totals match. The question number is given
% in the warning. \\
%
% \noindent\texttt{DEPRECATED: The \cs{newsection} macro is deprecated; use
% the} \\
% \texttt{examsection environment instead} \\
% The \cs{newsection} macro is a hangover from earlier versions of
% \textsf{ouexam}, and has been left in v2.0 for backwards compatibility with
% some documents that use it. The entire sectioning mechanism was rewritten
% from scratch for v2.0, so this macro is now deprecated and will eventually
% disappear. You should use the \textsf{examsection} environment
% instead. \\
%
% \noindent\texttt{invalid value `\ldots' for \cs{semester}; valid values are
% `1', `2', `SS'} \\*
% \texttt{and `SP'. No semester information will be printed} \\*
% You have given an invalid value as the argument to the \cs{semester} macro.
% The allowed values are `1' (semester one), `2' (semester two), `SS' (summer
% school) and `SP' (special examination). Any other values will be ignored.
% Note that these are case-sensitive, for example, `sp' is invalid. \\

% \begin{itemize}
%
% \item The number of hours is not specified, so it defaults to three.
%
% \item This examination allows calculators.
%
% \item The \textsf{listings} package is used to typeset code listings.
%
% \item The argument of the \cs{instructions} macro can be just about
% anything, as can the arguments of the \cs{material}, \cs{copiesof} and
% \cs{otherinstructions} macros. In this example, the \cs{instructions}
% macro has been omitted, causing \textsf{ouexam} to output the default
% instructions.
%
% \item Marking schedule information has been embedded within the

% \begin{examsection}{25}{}{Questions in this section (total 25 marks)
% relate to physical database design and tuning.}
%
%
% \begin{question}{10}
%
% A major U.S. mail order firm is having performance problems with queries
% on the \textsf{Customer} table in its Oracle8 order-processing database.
% Consider the following information about the \textsf{Customer} table,
% then answer the questions below: \\
%
% \textsf{\textbf{Customer}(\underline{customer\_no}, name, address, city,
% state, country, phone, email, status)}
%
% \begin{itemize}
% \item \textsf{customer\_no} is the primary key and because this is an
% Oracle8 database, a unique B-tree index has been automatically created
% on this column.
%
% \item \textsf{status} is a single character column that holds one of
% the values `I' (inactive), `B' (bronze), `S' (silver) or `G' (gold).
% The value of this column is determined by a customer's order history.
%
% \item About 10\% of customers are inactive, about 50\% have bronze
% status, about 35\% have silver status and about 5\% have gold status.
%
% \item The average row size is about 200 bytes and there are
% approximately 5,000,000 rows.
%
% \item The \textsf{Customer} table is heavily queried (averaging thirty
% new queries per minute) by four different groups of employees. Group~1
% queries only inactive customers, group~2 queries only bronze status
% customers and groups~3 and~4 both query only silver and gold status
% customers. Members of any group may query the table at any time and
% queries often overlap.
%
% \item UPDATE, INSERT and DELETE operations on the table are uncommon.
%
% \item Very few queries are for individual customers; rather, most
% queries are based on various combinations of values from
% \textsf{status}, \textsf{city}, \textsf{state} and \textsf{country}.
% \end{itemize}\medskip
%
% \begin{subquestion}{3}
% Describe and justify an \emph{index-based} physical tuning solution
% that will improve the performance of queries on the \textsf{Customer}
% table. (No code is required.)
% \begin{marking}
% Since queries tend to be on combinations of several low-cardinality
% columns [1] and the table is very large [1], the most effective
% solution would be to place bitmap indexes on status, city, state and
% country [1].
%
% B-tree indexes on any of the individual columns would not be ideal
% because of their low cardinality. A possible alternative is a
% composite B-tree index on all four columns [1 for suggesting this if
% appropriate], but this is not ideal and would be much larger than
% the four bitmap indexes [1 for this explanation if appropriate].
% Hashing is definitely \emph{not} an option, because very few queries
% are exact match.
% \end{marking}
% \end{subquestion}
%
% \begin{subquestion}{7}
% \begin{subsubquestion}{5}\label{nonindex}
% Assuming that there are two identical fast disks available, describe
% and justify two alternative \emph{non index-based} physical tuning
% solutions that will improve the performance of queries on the
% \textsf{Customer} table. For each solution include details of how
% the two disks will be used. (No code is required.)
% \begin{marking}
% Alternative 1: partition the table across the two disks based on
% status (four partitions, one for each status value) [1]. This will
% allow simultaneous parallel access to different parts of the table
% by the different groups [1]. Since two groups both access silver
% and gold customers, it makes sense to put the silver customers on
% disk one and the gold customers on disk two. Bronze customers
% account for 50\% of the table, so it makes sense to also put them
% on disk two (as the gold customers are the smallest group), and
% put the inactive customers on disk one with the silver customers.
% [1 for any sensible partitioning scheme]
%
% Alternative 2: replicate the table across both disks (one replica
% on each disk) [1]. This will also provide simultaneous parallel
% access to the data (hard to tell whether this would be better or
% worse than the partitioning above) [1].
%
% Note that any solution must be capable of being implemented in
% Oracle8.
% \end{marking}
% \end{subsubquestion}
%
% \begin{subsubquestion}{2}
% Briefly discuss the relative advantages and/or disadvantages of the
% two alternative solutions you described in part~(\ref{nonindex})
% above.
% \begin{marking}
% The partitioning solution given above doesn't really help with the
% bronze customer rows---we would need random horizontal
% partitioning to really help with this, which Oracle8 doesn't
% support. More generally, Oracle8 does not migrate rows into the
% correct partition if a customer's status changes, so the data will
% need to be reloaded occasionally [1].
%
% For replication, we have the usual problem of keeping the replicas
% synchronised if they are both read/write. This is somewhat
% mitigated by the fact that there are only two copies [1].
% \end{marking}
% \end{subsubquestion}

% \begin{question}{10}
% There are two generic parameters that affect the structure of a B-tree
% index.
%
% \begin{subquestion}{6}
% Identify these two parameters and describe what each parameter
% specifies. Use diagrams to illustrate your answer.
% \begin{marking}
% \emph{Node size} [1] specifies the maximum number of pointers in
% each index node [1]. Suitable diagram [1].
%
% \emph{Percentage fill} [1] specifies the number of pointers in each
% index node that are allocated when a node is created [1]. In effect,
% it determines the amount of free space left in each node. Suitable
% diagram [1].
% \end{marking}
% \end{subquestion}
%
% \begin{subquestion}{4}
% For each of the two parameters, discuss the practical effect(s) of:
% \begin{subsubquestion}{2}
% high values of the parameter; and
% \begin{marking}
% Large node size reduces the height of the B-tree, resulting in
% potentially fewer I/Os to access a leaf node [$\frac{1}{2}$]. It
% can however increase the number of rows locked in a single leaf
% node [$\frac{1}{2}$].
%
% High percent fill means that most pointers in a node will be
% allocated when the node is created [$\frac{1}{2}$]. This leaves
% little free space in the B-tree for new key values or key values
% that change [$\frac{1}{2}$].
% \end{marking}
% \end{subsubquestion}
% \begin{subsubquestion}{2}
% low values of the parameter.
% \begin{marking}
% Small node size increases the height of the B-tree, resulting in
% potentially more I/Os to access a leaf node [$\frac{1}{2}$]. The
% number of rows locked in a single leaf node will be reduced
% [$\frac{1}{2}$].
%
% Low percent fill means that most pointers in a node will not be
% allocated when the node is created [$\frac{1}{2}$]. This leaves
% little free space in the B-tree for new key values or key values
% that change [$\frac{1}{2}$].

% \begin{question}{5}\label{clusterq}
%
% \begin{subquestion}{2}
% Define what is meant by the term ``clustering'' in the context of
% physical database design and tuning, and explain why it is beneficial.
%
% \begin{marking}
% Clustering is the grouping of related rows physically near to each
% other on disk [1] so that they may be retrieved in as few I/Os as
% possible (ideally one)---beneficial because of the slowness of disk
% I/O compared to memory I/O [1].
% \end{marking}
% \end{subquestion}
%
% \begin{subquestion}{3}\label{clusterqcode}
% Consider the following Oracle8 SQL table definition:
%
% \begin{lstlisting}[language={[Oracle8]SQL}]{}
% create table enrolment
% ( student_id char(7),
% paper_code char(7),
% enrol_year number(4),
%
% primary key (student_id, paper_code, enrol_year)
% );
% \end{lstlisting}
%
% The \textsf{Enrolment} table is often queried for all rows relating to
% a particular student in a particular year (for example, student
% 1234567 in 1998, student 9876543 in 2000, etc.). Write appropriate
% Oracle8 SQL code that will cluster the rows of the table in such a way
% as to support these types of query (you do not need to calculate
% cluster sizes). Relevant Oracle8 syntax diagrams are given on the next
% page.
% \begin{marking}
% \begin{lstlisting}[language={[Oracle8]SQL}]{}
% create cluster enrolment_cluster (student_id char(7), year number(4));
%
% create index enrol_cluster_index on cluster enrolment_cluster;
%
% create table enrolment
% ( student_id char(7),
% paper_code char(7),
% enrol_year number(4),
%
% primary key (student_id, paper_code, enrol_year)
% ) cluster enrolment_cluster(student_id, enrol_year);

% This document class is based on the \textsf{article} class and accepts any of
% the options accepted by \textsf{article}. The \textsf{twoside} option does
% not really make sense, however---all Otago examination papers are printed
% single-sided anyway, and the format is such that two-sided printing would

% \begin{macro}{\if@draft}
% \changes{2.0}{2001/05/15}{NJS New switch for \textsf{draft}.}
% The \textsf{draft} option determines whether the examination is to be printed
% in draft mode (default off). The \cs{if@draft} switch is used to determine
% whether this is in effect (default false). Draft mode has the usual effects
% that you would expect for draft mode in the \textsf{article} class, plus

%
% Note that if you use the \textsf{graphicx} package and turn on the

% be drawn in draft mode unless you specify the |draft=false| option to the
% \cs{includegraphics} macro. The amount of effort required to fix what is
% a relatively small issue isn't really worth it, so this will not change.

% \changes{2.0}{2002/01/15}{NJS Fixed headers so that the page number is always
% centered.}
%
% \begin{macro}{\ps@plain}
% The \textsf{plain} page style is based on that in the \textsf{article} class,
% and produces pages with the page number centered at the top, the paper number
% in the top right corner and the text ``\textbf{TURN OVER}'' in the bottom
% right. If semester information is specified, this is included in parentheses
% after the paper code, for example, ``COMP 101 (Semester Two)''.
% \begin{macrocode}
\def\ps@plain{%
\def\@oddhead{%
% \end{macrocode}
% Note that we have to get a bit clever to ensure that the page number is
% properly centered in the page header. The naive solution is just to use
% \cs{hfill}s, but this will cause the page number to shift around depending on
% the length of \cs{@pnumber}. Piet van Oostrum's \textsf{fancyhdr} package will
% do this for us, but it seems a bit of overkill to require this package merely
% so that we can ensure that the page number remains centered. Instead, we've
% borrowed the relevant technique from that class, which draws the left, centre
% and right bits of the header as three overlapping boxes. You just have to be
% careful that the value of \cs{@pnumber} isn't so long that it overwrites the
% page number.
% \begin{macrocode}

% \subsection{Various counters}
%
% Earlier versions of \textsf{ouexam} used the \textsf{enumerate}
% environment to build questions, which meant that special counters were not
% required. This version of the class, however, uses a different mechanism for
% building questions, so we need to define custom counters for several things.
%
% \begin{macro}{question}
% \begin{macro}{subquestion}
% \changes{2.0}{2000/09/11}{NJS New \texttt{subquestion} counter.}
% \changes{2.0.1}{2000/04/30}{NJS Removed prefixed question number from
% \cs{labelsubquestion} macro so that references now print as just ``(a)''
% instead of ``1(a)''.}
% \begin{macro}{subsubquestion}
% \changes{2.0}{2000/09/11}{NJS New \texttt{subsubquestion} counter.}
% \changes{2.0.1}{2000/04/30}{NJS The \texttt{subsubquestion} was incorrectly
% printing as ``(a)'' rather than ``(i)''. Fixed.}
% \changes{2.0.1}{2000/04/30}{NJS Removed prefixed question numbers from
% \cs{labelsubsubquestion} macro so that references now print as just ``(i)''
% instead of ``1(a)(i)''.}
% First, we define three counters for the three possible levels of question:
% top-level question, second-level sub-question or third-level sub-sub-question:
% \begin{macrocode}
\newcounter{question}
\newcounter{subquestion}[question]
\newcounter{subsubquestion}[subquestion]
% \end{macrocode}
% The three question levels are numbered as 1., (a) and (i) respectively, so we
% also need to redefine the associated \cs{the} and \cs{label} macros
% appropriately:
% \begin{macrocode}
\renewcommand{\thequestion}{\arabic{question}}
\newcommand{\labelquestion}{\arabic{question}.}
\renewcommand{\thesubquestion}{(\alph{subquestion})}

% \end{macro}
% \end{macro}
%
% \begin{macro}{examexpected}
% \changes{2.0}{2000/09/11}{NJS New \texttt{examexpected} counter.}
% The |examexpected| counter stores the total expected number of marks for the
% examination, and defaults to 100:
% \begin{macrocode}

\setcounter{examexpected}{100}
% \end{macrocode}
% \end{macro}
% \begin{macro}{examoutof}
% \changes{2.0}{2000/09/11}{NJS New \texttt{examoutof} macro.}
% To specify that an examination is out of some number of marks other than
% 100, use the \cs{examoutof} macro to set the value:
% \begin{macrocode}
\newcommand{\examoutof}[1]{\setcounter{examexpected}{#1}}
% \end{macrocode}
% \end{macro}
%
% \begin{macro}{sectexpected}

% The next four counters perform the same function as the |examexpected| counter
% for sections, questions, sub-questions and sub-sub-questions respectively. No

% \changes{2.0}{2001/05/15}{NJS Added penalty handling to ensure correct
% placement of marks in output.}
% \changes{2.0}{2001/05/15}{NJS Total marks for a question are now printed only
% if the question has no sub-questions.}
% \begin{environment}{question}
% The \textsf{question} environment specifies a top-level question, and produces
% questions numbered in the form ``1.'', ``2.'', etc. It has one mandatory
% argument, the number of marks allocated to the question, which is used to
% initialise the |qexpected| counter\footnote{If it were not for the fact that
% you can only refer to environment arguments in the environment preamble, the
% \texttt{qexpected} counter would be unnecessary.}. If the argument is left
% empty, default to zero for the number of marks:
%
% \begin{macrocode}
\newenvironment{question}[1]{%
\def\@nummarks{#1}
\ifx\@nummarks\@empty\setcounter{qexpected}{0}
\else\setcounter{qexpected}{#1}\fi
% \end{macrocode}
%
% For each top-level question, we increment the |question| counter, which also
% resets the |hassubs| and |qrunning| counters to zero:
% \begin{macrocode}
\refstepcounter{question}
% \end{macrocode}
% The question itself is built using a single-item \textsf{list} environment.
% \begin{macrocode}
\begin{list}{\labelquestion}{}
\item
% \end{macrocode}
%
% When the environment closes, the following things happen:
% \begin{enumerate}
% \item If the question has no sub-questions, the value of the |qexpected|
% counter is added to |examrunning| and |sectrunning|, and both |qrunning|
% and |lastexpected| are set to the value of |qexpected|.
%
% \begin{macrocode}
}{%
\ifnum\thehassubs=0
\addtocounter{examrunning}{\value{qexpected}}
\addtocounter{sectrunning}{\value{qexpected}}
\setcounter{qrunning}{\value{qexpected}}
% \end{macrocode}
%
% The total number of marks for the question is then printed right-justified
% on the line as ``(\emph{m} marks)'' where \emph{m} is the value of the
% |qrunning| counter. The environment determines whether to print ``mark'' or
% ``marks'' automatically, and figures out whether the number of marks will fit
% on the last line of the question or needs to be placed on the next line.
% The code for handling the line breaking is derived from an example on page
% 106 of \emph{The \TeX{}book}:
%
% \begin{macrocode}
\unskip\nobreak\hfil\penalty50\hskip2em\hbox{}\nobreak
\hfil(\theqrunning~\ifnum\theqrunning=1 mark\else marks\fi)
\parfillskip=0pt \finalhyphendemerits=0 \par
% \end{macrocode}
%
% \item If the question \emph{does} have sub-questions, then |qrunning|,
% |examrunning| and |sectrunning| have already been set by the various
% sub-environments. The value of |qrunning| is then compared with
% |qexpected|, and a warning is raised if they do not match. The total number
% of marks for the question is \emph{not} printed in this case.

% \item |lastexpected| is set to the value of |qexpected| so it can be used
% in any subsequent \textsf{marking} environment.
