There will 12 exercise sets in total, and at least 6 for the analytical part on Laplace transforms, Fourier analysis and PDEs and 5 for the numerical methods taught in this class, see Lecture plan. Those exercise sets are either marked with A(nalytical) or N(umerical in the table above. To be granted access to the exam you need

  • at least 6 approved exercise sets in total, and
  • at least 3 approved exercise sets marked as A and 3 approved exercise sets marked as N.

So, for example getting all 4 (N) exercise sets approved , but only 2 exercise sets marked with (A), won't grant you access to the exam. Also, it is strongly recommended that you complete all exercise sets.

Exercise groups

The default language during the tutorial sessions is Norwegian, but during the tutorials, questions can of course be asked in English (and of course will then be answered in English as well).

Submissions: time and place

You must submit your exercise set via ovsys2 and you also can check there how many of your exercise sets have been approved.

It is your responsibility to pay attention to your own progress and contact your student assistant immediately if something seems wrong. If you are not in the exercise tracking system, please contact your student assistant informing him or her about the situation and giving your full name, study program, and username.

Approvals from previous semesters

Compulsory exercise activities from earlier Calculus 4N/4D courses which were approved as a whole (not only individual exercises!) should get approved automatically for the 2021 fall edition of Calculus 4N. This can be only checked by NTNU staff who has access to FS (Felles Studentsystem), for instance members of the department office (Instituttkontor) at IMF. We as the course team do not have access to FS. Please send studies related administration inquiries directly to department office via NTNU hjelp/IMF studiesaker.
