cheat-sheets
Illicit exam aids
Cheat-sheets are quick-reference guides containing essential information in condensed form.
Originally notes smuggled into exams, the term now usually describes legitimate study aids or reference cards: I keep a cheat-sheet of keyboard shortcuts by my desk.
In computing and professional contexts, cheat-sheets summarize commands, formulas, or procedures for rapid lookup.
Also spelled cheat sheets.
