Assignments

There will be weekly homework assignments available for download from the course web page each Wednesday afternoon. Printouts will not be provided. Homework will include theoretical problems and programming problems, which are to be prepared using Matlab (available at the student computer pools at ETH). The solved theoretical problems should be handed in until the following Thursday at 12:00 in the assistants' boxes located at HG G 53 or in the exercise classes on Thursday morning or afternoon. Please provide the assistant's name on the solved problem sheets.

Programming problems

The link to online submission interface will be published soon.

Testate condition

As testate conditions are not in place anymore, it is not compulsory, but it is recommended, to hand in the assignments for correction.
