Re: Not in academia
I don't think that will be a problem. In most courses, the first exam is at least a month if not two into the term, so you'd have lots of practice before it gets to the test. Referring to the old homework when doing the next one wouldn't be a problem under any course conditions I've experienced. By the time you get to the test, hopefully the experience of having done what would probably be ten to twenty of those tasks has helped you to understand the structure of a chunk of code so you can reproduce it.
