Lectures and exercises. Training with Maple software
Assessment method
There will be given six written exercises for hand-in during the course. A four-hour written exam. Auxiliary exam material allowed - with the exception of computers and calculators that can make abstract symbolic manipulations. The existing grade scale will be used. The final grade will be given such that the best four hand-ins have weight of 30% while the exam has a weight of 70%.
