Solving the Exercises:

During the examples classes, teaching assistants will be present to answer your questions and help you with the exercises. You should prepare the exercises for the examples session to be able to ask specific questions. We will offer office hours for final exam. You can contact the responsible TAs for questions about particular exercises, or the head TA (Marta Fochesato) for general questions on the course structure.

Exercises and sample solutions:

The exercises and solutions are exclusively published on Moodle.
