Semesterside for FYS4110 - H?st 2019

We are required to arrange a meeting to evaluate the course. It has to be after the exam, so that this can also be evaluated.  I thought that the simplest is if we have it just after the exam finishes, so the meeting will be in the usual Thursday lecture room (LilleFy) on Thursday December 5. at 13:15. It should not last very long time, but 30 min passes very fast in my experience. I hope that many of you will have time to come, it is very useful for us to understand what works well with a course, and what should be changed.

On Tuesday, November 26. at 12:15 (usual time and place) we will have the final lecture. I will not cover any new material, but summarize main points and answer any questions that you may have. If you have questions in advance, send them to me so I can prepare.

The results of the midterm exam are now posted on the webpage. We gave maximal 5 points on each question, and you find your score fore each question in the table as well as your total score. The maximal score was 110 points, and we have decided that all students who submitted a solution has passed the midterm exam and are allowed to continue to the final exam. Your score on the midterm will then be included when we determine the final grade.

Next week, on Tuesday 5/11, we will discuss protocols for quantum cryptography. To prepare, it is useful to understand something about classical codes, and as a challenge to you I have prepared a secret message that you have to decrypt:

As we discussed on Thursday, there was a suggestion that we create a Piazza page for the course.

You find the link on the course page, the access code is fys4110.

Ask, questions, answer questions or discuss whatever you think is relevant to the course.
