ASSESSMENT

Assessment: The course grade will be based on programming projects (possibly involving a personal examination) and/or programming exercises that will jointly account for 50% of the final grade, and a 3- hour written examination that will account for the remaining 50% of the final grade. These percentages may vary (+/-10%) each year. To succeed in this course, a mark of 5 or higher is required in the written exam and in the final grade.
