Final exam
Details
The theoretical basics and the associated calculation methods are tested in a written exam. The programming skills required to implement an algorithm are tested in a programming test.
Minimum standard
Both parts of the examination must be passed with at least 4.0. The written exam and the programming test are included proportionally in the module grade. The weighting is currently 70% for the written exam and 30% for the programming test.
Exam Type
The theoretical basics and the associated calculation methods are tested in a written exam. The programming skills required to implement an algorithm are tested in a programming test.
