    Submit your solutions
    through A+.

    Submissions will be graded, and to pass you need to get 50% of points for each exercise set to pass the course. The exercises also affect the final grading by giving you a maximum of 6 points (max 2 per exercise set) out of 36 total points (30 for exam, 6 for exercises). To get 1 point for course grading, you are required to get at least 67% of the total points for the exercise, to get 2 points for course grading you need at to get at least 83% of the points.

    Late submissions will not be accepted. If you e.g. happen to fall ill, and need more time because of that, please contact the course staff as soon as possible, preferably via cs-e4410(at)aalto.fi. Extensions are granted on a case-wise basis.
