Rules for the Exercise Sessions

During exercise sessions students should present (at the blackboard) their solutions to the class. No "official" solution to the exercises will be given. The assistant will be present during the exercise sessions to make sure that what is presented by the students is indeed correct. After each exercise session the solutions of the students will be uploaded.
