Requirements to the exam -

The exam will be oral, with an opportunity for written preparation. The content of the exam corresponds to the syllabus of the course, as covered at the lectures. The students must also demonstrate the ability to apply (and generalize) the results from the lecture in solving combinatorial exercises. Before taking the exam, a candidate must first get credit from the tutorial.
