Well done!

I got 6/7 - having misunderstood the French question!


Ah! I cheated on the binary number. Had to be even and there was only
the one:-)

Are *all* GCSE questions multiple choice these days? If so, that's not
a proper test of *real* knowledge since it's easy to know enough to be
able to pick the most likely answer without having a clue if no answers
were provided.


Agreed.

Wasn't like that in my day!


Nor mine. My wife needed *O* level maths as a mature student. Looking
over her shoulder, I found some of that very difficult.
