Tests:

  • The first small test was held on Dec. 9, 2004, from 11:30 to 13:00 in room SN.19.7 on the central campus (and NOT in RZ012). For a map click here.

    Samples of old tests can be found here: WS 2000/01, WS 2001/02
    Note: By providing these old test assignments we don't warrant that the test for this term will be similar to them in any way. There is no guarantee that the new test will not be completely different.

    The exercise sheet of the first test is now available here: Test 1.
    Test results are available here: Results Test 1.

  • The second small test will be held on Feb. 17, 2005, from 11:30 to 13:00 in room SN.19.7 on the central campus (and NOT in RZ012). For a map click here.
