Warning: do not rely on Recordings to learn the material. Attendance to lectures and TA sessions in person is strongly recommended. Especially do not be tempted to 'binge' on material or wait later: paced, slow learning is important for maturing the deep understanding and problem solving abilities required.
Prüfung
Prüfungsinformationen: noch nicht erfasst.The Exam date is already set by the MNF central office, see here: it will take place on: Monday, February 8, 2027, 9.00-12.00
Exam Bonus: a bonus (up to +.5 mark) can be obtained through the 'Assessed Exercises' during the 1st hour of lecture, on the two following dates: Wed 14 October and Wed December 1 (further details given during the course).
The Exam is written and will take place with closed books. No cheat sheet is allowed. It will consist mostly of exercises to solve (in the spirit of Homework problems), but theory questions concerning fundamental definitions and results will also be included.
During the exam, it will be possible to ask to have any of these definitions/results written down (of course loosing the points for the part of the question concerning the theory) in order to solve the rest of the exercise.
If you want to try to do a Past Exam in this style, you can try the one given in HS 2022 below (and of course you can also solve exams by other Professors who taught the course in other Academic years).
