There will be no lectures, tutorials or office hours in the week 26th - 30th of December 2022.
Additionally there will be no in-person teaching in the weeks 19th - 23rd of December 2022 and 2nd - 6th of January 2023. Instead we will have online replacements as follows:

Lectures

The lectures on the 23rd of December, 4th of January and 6th of January will take place via zoom at the regular times.
The lecture on the 21st of December will have to take place at 10:15 - 11:45, but we will try to make the recording available until the regular time of the lecture.

Tutorials

The tutorials on the 20th of December will take place via zoom. You will be able to find the corresponding links in the Materials section of the CMS soon.
There are no tutorials on the 3rd of January.

Office Hours

All office hours will take place at the usual time, via discord. A link to it can be found in the Materials section of the CMS soon.

Exercise Sheets

There is no exercise sheet due on the 23rd of December, instead we have a sheet with only bonus points due on the 6th of January. Keep in mind that there are restrictions to which exercises you can submit, listed at the top of the exercise sheet.
 

Unfortunately due to conflicts we were forced to reschedule both of our exams. The new dates and times of the exams are: 

• Endterm: 1st of March 2023, 14:00 - 17:00 (raw time to complete the exam: 120 min)
• Reexam: 31st of March 2023, 9:00 - 12:00 (raw time to complete the exam: 120 min)

In case this rescheduling is an issue for you please contact us as soon as possible so we can find a solution.

Tomorrow is the opening event for the new via-center on campus together with google. And it will be in the Günter-Hotz-Hörsaal.

Since there is not a large enough replacement for it, we need to have the tomorrow's  lecture online via Zoom. You find the Zoom link the materials section in the "Links" category. The lecture will be live and starts as usual at 14:15. The lecture will be recorded and will be made available as usual.

I am sorry for the short notice.

 

We have extended the registration period for forming groups to submit exercise sheets until November 1st at 23:59. We recommend still forming a group if you haven't done so yet, you can use the forum to look for partners.

Note that this also pushes back the time you can start submitting your solutions to the first exercise sheet to November 2nd. The course registration and tutorial registration deadlines are not affected by this and still end today.
