Teaching methods
Theoretical lectures with examples, practical project-oriented lessons, homeworks.
Assessment methods
In the course of the semester, the students will work on project, gaining maximum of 36 points. The algorithmic optimality together with coding style and documentation will be taken into evaluation. Another 9 point can be obtained on practical lessons in the form of short online tests. 28 points can be obtained from in-term tests, as well as 27 points from the final one. 70 out of the total 100 points is required to complete the course successfully.
