Choices for passing the course TWO possibilities 1.Take the exam (in February) + Solve the exercises (you get extra points) or 2. Take only the exam (in February and fall 2016)

Grading 1. Exam → grade from the exam (max 30 points) 2. Exercises (max 10 points) GradePoints

Exam The next exam is held on Typically the exam is held once during spring and once during autumn The exam consists of 6 exercises covering all the course topics

Exercises Numerical exercises that must be solved before each exercise session. The solution will be provided during the exercise sessions (see schedule). You will earn extra points by solving the exercises and returning the solution before the deadline! –Excellent training for the final exam…(participation highly recommended)
