In order to give you ¡­

In order to give you a little practice Knut Syds?ter has kindly put together a problem set that you may try your hand at and hand in for marking on Tuesday 16 February. The problems will be handed out in class today, and you can also find them on this page under the heading Voluntary assignments and term papers. Later this term you will get a "voluntary term paper" where you can show your calculations and arguments in "free style".

These problem sets are voluntary and what you do on them has no influence on your grades for the course (except indirectly through their effect on your learning!), but our impression is that students who hand them in tend to do a little better on the exam.
