Exercise Sheets

The exercise sheets will be uploaded to this website before each class. Students should print a copy and bring it to the class.

Students should summarise their answers to the exercises (graphs, values, etc) and email them to the tutor that supervised the class. This LaTeX template can be used to produce a PDF file containing all these items. Students should also email their computer programs to the tutor so they can be checked. One document per group is sufficient, but the names of all group members should be included.
