Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
The lecture gives an introduction to algorithms and data structures. Topics covered in the lecture are: Complexity and Worst Case Analysis, Lists, Queues, and Stacks, Heaps, Balanced Search Trees, Dynamic Programming, Hash Functions, Divide and Conquer, Sorting Algorithms, Graph Algorithms, LP and ILP, Approximation Algorithms and Greedy Algorithms.
Assessment and permitted materials
The will be two exams, on April 30 and on June 25, each with a maximum of 35 points. You will be able to earn up to 30 points via exercise sheets (homework) and up to 20 points by presenting in class. The basis for calculating the final grade is 100 points, 50 points are sufficient to pass. Depending on the number of participants, changes to this scheme might be announced at the first meeting.
