Homeworks and Quizzes

  • Homeworks: There will be no homework. I’ll update this page time to time with some recommended practical problems from the book which can help you to prepare for the quizzes/exams.
  • Quizzes: There will be some quizzes during the semester. The schedule for the quizzes will be updated progressively. They comprise 10% of your final grade. Two lowest scores will not be considered in your final score for the quizzes. A missed quiz counts as zero points and no make-up quizzes (for any reason) will be given.
