Assignments: You will not be required to hand in assignments. However, you will find below a list of valuable problems that correspond to the topics of the different weeks.
Test: There will be one class test in the seventh week of the course , covering the first five weeks of the course. There will be no make-up test.
Final Exam: The final examination will be three hours long. It covers material from the entire course, but there may be more stress on material covered in the second half of the course.
Final Mark: Your final mark will be computed as follows:
Test: 30% plus Final Exam: 70% = 100%
