+This is version 2.2 of the exam documentclass, a major extension of
+version 2.01. Version 2.2 is fully backward compatible with version 2.01.
+
+The exam documentclass, together with its documentation file
+examdoc.tex, attempts to make it easy for even a LaTeX novice to prepare
+exams. Simple commands are provided to:
+
+1. Create questions, parts of questions, subparts of parts, and subsubparts
+of subparts, all with optional point values.
+
+2. Create a grading table, indexed either by question number (listing each
+question and the total possible points for that question) or by page number
+(listing each page with points and the total possible points for that page).
+
+3. Create headers and footers that are each specified in three parts: One
+part to be left justified, one part to be centered, and one part to be right
+justified.
+
+4. Headers and/or footers can be different on the first page of the exam,
+can be different on the last page of the exam, and can vary depending on
+whether the page number is odd or even, or on whether the current page
+continues a question from a previous page, or on whether the last question
+on the current page continues onto the following page.
+
+5. Multiple line headers and/or footers are allowed, and it's easy to
+increase the part of the page devoted to headers and/or footers to allow
+for this.
+
+
+The documentation file examdoc.tex attempts to explain all of the
+possibilities in a readable way, with many specific examples.
