There is a single course for lecture and exercises with separate grading for both parts. Some components count for the lecture, while others will count for the exercises. Neither one is a prerequisite for the other, which means you can pass lecture and exercises independently from each other. It is still recommended to do both lecture and exercise in the same semester. If you do only one, please study the course material for both lecture and exercise.

For the exercise there will be an exercise sheet every week. The exercise sheet will be published online one week ahead, solutions for the exercises are to be prepared until the next exercise class but need not be submitted. During the exercise class solutions will be presented by the lecturer, questions can be asked, and solutions can be discussed (this is why preparation of the exercises in advance is necessary and beneficial). Attendance in the lecture and exercise classes is recommended but not mandatory, both are streamed and recorded.

The course is divided into 4 topics, each consisting of 3 modules. The course can be taken either in WQ-mode (weekly quizzes, recommended) or in BE-mode (monthly quiz for the exercise, big exam at the end of the semester for the lecture). You have to choose the mode at the beginning of the semester before the first quiz. If you fail in WQ-mode, a certificate with a negative grade will be issued. However, you can immediately switch to BE-mode and do the big exam at the end of the semester, which then counts as your second attempt.
