Recommended Practice Questions from Ch 16, Petrucci (11th/10th/9th editions).

The following questions are recommended practice questions. They are largely the
questions for which you will find answers at the back of your text. If you are curious
about the answer or full solution for a given question, please post your question in the
“Chapter 16” folder in the Avenue discussion board and indicate with which part you
need help, or come in to an instructor office hour or the help centre to see the full
solutions manual.

Please note that for multi-part questions not all parts are necessarily recommended.

Concept assessments & Practice Examples

The first recommendation is to complete all of the concept assessments and practice
examples in Chapter 16. Then, in addition, work on the end-of-chapter questions listed
below.
