Dear students,

we have just distributed all participating students to the different lecture halls. You are allowed to participate in the re-exam, if you are both admitted and registered for the re-exam.

The re-exam will take place this Friday, 15.09.2023, from 14:00 - 16:00 in the following lecture halls.

  • Building E2.2, Lecture Hall 0.01 (AudiMo, Günter-Hotz)
  • Building E1.3, Lecture Hall 0.02 (HS002)

You can find your assigned lecture hall in the CMS on your personal status page under Exam Seats - Seat for Re-exam. Only the room is important here, not the exact seat. You are free to choose your seat.

 

General Information and Procedure
  • The re-exam will start at 14:00 and will last 120 minutes.
  • Be in front of your respective lecture hall at 13:45 at the latest.
  • You may use two A4 sheets with hand-written notes (front and back) and a non-programmable calculator. All other materials are not permitted.
  • Use a document-safe, permanent pen such as a ballpoint pen. Solutions written with a pencil will not be considered.
  • We will distribute the re-exams to the individual seats before you enter the lecture hall. Only take a seat where there is a re-exam.
  • You can read the instructions on the cover page directly, but do not open the re-exam booklet until your supervisor announces the start of the re-exam. Premature opening will be considered as attempted cheating.
  • Place your bags on the sides of the lecture hall.
  • Take your student ID card with you to your seat.

 

All further information about the re-exam procedure will be announced by the supervisor before the re-exam begins.

If anything is still unclear, please use our forum.

Dear students,

as already announced, we will make use of Jupyter notebooks throughout this lecture. To run these notebooks, we require a Python installation and a couple of Python packages. In addition, a few of the notebooks also require third-party software such as PostgreSQL or Neo4j. Therefore, we provide you with a virtual machine that already has everything installed.
Unfortunately, some of you encounter problems regarding the installation and/or use of the virtual machine, e.g. the installation does not work on MacBooks with M1 chips.

However, you do not necessarily need the virtual machine! For the assignment sheets, you will only need Python and the corresponding Python packages (no third-party software). Thus, if you are unable to use the virtual machine for whatever reason, you can also manually install the required software.
You can find instructions on how to manually install Python and the Python packages here. The link is also available under Information > Manual Installation.

Kind regards,
Your BDE Team

Dear students,

in the course of this lecture, we will use Python and in particular Jupyter Notebooks to explain various concepts. For a few notebooks, we also require additional software (e.g. PostgreSQL). Therefore, we provide a Virtual Machine that has all the required software and systems already installed. You can find detailed instructions at the following Github repository. The link is also available under Information > Vagrant.

We spent a lot of time preparing the tools and the instructions. Please read them carefully before asking questions. You can also consult the threads under bde22 > Technisches in our forum and check previously asked questions. We also provide a small FAQ.

Please note, that you are also able to run most of the notebooks by just having a Python installation with the required packages.

If you still have problems with the installation, you can either ask a question in the forum (bde23 > Technical Problems) or visit our Office Hour on Wednesday, 19 April at 14:15.

Kind regards,
Your BDE Team

Dear students,

you can now choose your preferred tutorial slots on your personal status page. You can change your preferences until 19.04.23 at 23:59.

We offer six regular tutorials at the following times.
    •    2x Monday, 10:15 - 12:00
    •    2x Monday, 12:15 - 14:00
    •    2x Tuesday, 12:15 - 14:00

In the tutorials, we will in general briefly discuss the solution of the previous assignment sheet. However, the main focus will be a recap of the lecture material by providing additional exercises.
Please note, that both the solutions of the assignment sheets as well as the tutorial slides including solutions will be timely uploaded to our Materials.

Because of this, experience has shown that some students will not attend the tutorials in person. Therefore, we also created an additional (pseudo) tutorial (Slot 1: Sunday, 00:00). Please give preference to this tutorial if you do not plan to attend the tutorials in general and rule out the other tutorial choices. With this, we can allow students that plan to attend, to more likely get their preferred choice. Furthermore, we can better assess how many in-person tutorials we really need. Of course, you can always attend a tutorial if you change your mind.

Your BDE Team
