The hand-in exercises are due each monday of the week after the week in which they have been posted on this website (e.g. if the exercises are posted on the wednesday of week 44, they need to be handed in at the latest on the monday of week 46). They may be handed in during class, or to me, Ottmar Cronie, at room (MVL:3075). Solutions should be clear, readable and easily understood. It is strongly encouraged and wished for that students work in pairs. In the case of exercises including computer simulations one should put extra effort on explaining what has been done. The grades for the course will be based on your solutions to the hand-in problems. Random oral examinations, where I ask you to present the ideas behind solutions to your exercises, may occur.

Grading: To pass this course, we will implement the following algorithm:
  function G=pass(X)            % G=1 means pass, G=0 fail, X vector with hand-in scores
  M=[M1, M2, M3, M4, M5, M6];   % maximum on each hand-in
  S=sum(X);                     % total points
  G=1;
  for i=1:6
    if X(i)<0.3*M(i)
      G=0;
    end
  end
  if S< 0.5*sum(M)
     G=0;
  end

That is, 50% of the total score must be achived, and at least 30% on each hand-in. Note: Simulations are a part of this course that cannot be neglected. Understanding this algorithm is a good start!

Deadline: All hand-ins must be handed in by December 20 in order for us to be able to register grades and credits in the Ladok-system this term.
