Content delivery and attendance
Lectures: The lectures will be delivered live at the campus, with a podcasts recorded for offline.
Exercises: There are two rooms available for exercise classes in python. The places will be decided on a first-come-first-serve basis but is enough space for everyone.

Assessment
The course will be graded 1-6. With 50% of the grade from exercise sheets and another 50% from a test given in the middle of the course. The requirements to pass the course will be to get at least 50% of the marks from the exercise sheets and at least 50% of the marks in the exam.
Midterm test (15th November at 15:00 in Y36 J 23 and Y36 J 33):
* The midterm test is worth 50% of the overall grade
