Exam information
Permitted aids:

- The A4 formula sheet attached at the exam: formulas.pdf
Relevant material:
- All chapters listed on Lecture plan
- Xu's Lecture notes
- All exercise sheets with solutions
- All Jupyter notes
- List of extra exercises from the book: tma4130_extra.pdf
- List of extra exercises for the numerics part: repetisjonsoppgaver.pdf
About possible programming questions at the exam:
- We may want to check if you have done and understood the Jupyter part of the exercises and in the note.
- Focus will in that case be on the core implementation of the algorithms, not on plots, pretty printing, storage of solution, etc.
- You will not be asked to write code from scratch, you may have to make small modification of given code. In that case syntax errors will not count.
- You may be asked about interpretation of output from a code (for instance how to decide on the order of a given method based on a sequence of stepsize vs. errors, or explain expected or unexpected behaviour of output from an algorithm).
- Programming will anyway not be a major part of the numerics part of the exam.
