Monday to Thursday the exercises classes start at 13.15. Monday and Wednesday the STK9900 students start with the practical exercises, while the STK4900 students start with the theoretical exercises. Then at 14.30 we switch. Tuesday and Thursday we do it the other way around, so that the STK4900 students start with the practical exercises and the STK9900 students start with the theoretical exercises.

The lectures Friday 20 April will be a bit shorter than those for the other days. We will therfore move the exercise classes forward to 12.15. Further we merge the practical and theoretical exercises, so both the STK4900- and STK9900-students meet at the computerlab on Friday.
