The credit will be given for active participation in tutorials, homeworks and successful completion of tests (the exact weight of each of these criteria is determined by the TA). The nature of the first two requirements does not make it possible for repeated attempts for the credit. The teacher can, however, determine alternative conditions for replacing the missing requirements.
The exam will be written or oral. Obtaining the credit is necessary before the final exam. Last update: Töpfer Pavel, doc. RNDr., CSc. (26.01.2018)
