Prerequisite knowledge

Being comfortable with using the Unix shell and being able to navigate the file system is required. No help will be forthcoming on the subject on a basic level, only advanced Unix tools and concepts will be discussed and that only as a side note. Consult this unix tutorial and or this lesson in Unix.
Having a good skill in Python programming is mandatory. A course like 22113/22163 should enable you to participate.

About exercises

There will be weekly exercises, which have to be handed in after 7 days on DTU Learn and peer evaluated the week after. A link to DTU Learn can also be found on DTU Inside for the course. You can only peer evaluate if you have handed in, and at you must have at least 11 out of 13 acceptable (by the teacher) hand-ins and evaluations to participate in the exam. The course is graded as pass/fail based on the exam.

The hand-in must be runnable code, when the exercise is making programs. Sometimes you are asked to evaluate different methods, then text or pdf can be added to the hand-in.
