Programming-specific questions will make up a maximum of 10% of the total exam grade and will be based on the topics and applications covered in the weekly Programming Assignments and Group Assignments. However, note that questions related to the non-programming part of the course may rely on code and programming concepts (for example, illustrating a numerical result in the form of Python output), so if you skip the programming part of the course entirely, you may impact much more than 10% of your exam grade. In other words: _complete your Programming Assignments and participate actively in the Group Assignments and you won't have a problem._
As the exam is closed-book, we will provide equations as needed either with a **formula sheet** or directly in the printed exam document.

### 2024-2025 Students: Known Issues Old Exams
If you are a current student preparing for exams, this section compiles a list of things you should keep in mind when reviewing old exams. Note the additional information provided below for interpreting the 2022-2023 exams (Year 1).
Q2 Exams:
- Risk Analysis: series/parallel systems and effect of dependence on failure probability are not part of your exam. This includes: 10c and 10d on the 2022 exam and 9a and 9b on the 2023 exam.
- The FEM quetsion from the 2023 exam is missing a solution for multiple choice question 2d: the answer is C
- For optimization, remember you are expected to have a clear understanding behind the Simplex method and how to do it, but will not need to do the calculations by hand (2022 Part 5, Optimization question 2 illustrates doing it by hand).
- Previous time series questions looked at ARMA: this is not part of the exam (specifically MA = moving average; AR = autoregressive _is_ part of the exam!). In addition, the Partial ACF (PACF) may appear on previous exams, but is not required this year.
### How to interpret the 2022-2023 Exams
Note that for the 2022-2023 academic year the format of the module and specific topics were significantly different (see description below).
