Only **group numbers** and **student numbers** of its members. ====How to work==== * **Manage your time:** * Expected total time per person: About 3x12=36 hours. * Try to plan, focus, and limit the work so that you get some results in the expected time without using many extra hours. * Imagine you work in a company and the group is given 3 weeks and 36 hours per member to finish the project (some results, report, presentation). Do your best with these constaints. * **Focus** - at least to begin with. You are **not** expected to work on all the questions/projects. * You can present **partial answers** and results. * **Try and fail** is ok as long as you do not cover up. * You may discuss across the groups, but reports and presentations must be made independently. * You may use any literature you find, but you must give references to the source! * Do not copy from any source without understanding the material first!
