Homeworks

Each homework consists of a Jupyter notebook with the text exercises and the code blocks to be inserted (delimited by comments). Some hints and expected outputs are included for each exercise.

Please submit your homework through the teaching portal under the “Homework” section (or “Elaborati”). You must submit your Jupyter notebook by placing it in a zip file with the following name format: homeworkN_sXXXXXX.zip. N must be replaced with the homework number (i.e., for the first homework, with 1). XXXXXX must be replaced with your student identifier. For instance, homework1_s123456.zip is a valid submission format for the first homework and student s123456.

Each correctly submitted homework will contribute 0.5 points toward the final examination grade.
