== Written Exam ==

The written exam for the course took place on '''Thursday, February 27th, 2020 from 10:15 - 12:45 h''' (sharp) in rooms 101-00-010/14 (for participants with last name beginning with A-E) and room 82-00-006 (Kinohörsaal, same building as the mensa, for participants with last name beginning with F-Z).

61 people were registered for the exam, of which 56 people came to the exam. It was not allowed to leave the room before the end of the exam. The exams were corrected and the results entered into the HISinOne on the same day.

The exam inspection took place on Friday, March 6, 2020, 15:15 - 16:15 h in room 051-02-028 (office Prof. Bast). 24 people came to the exam inspection. There were four grade improvements (three by one partial grade each, one from not passing to just passing).

A maximum of 100 points could be reached. The minimum number of points needed to pass the exam was 50. The assignment of points to marks and the distribution of grades over the participants was as follows. Note that the counts on the right-hand side sum up to 61, which happens to be the number of people who participated in the exam. This is no coincidence.

== Oral Exams ==

The oral exams (exclusively for B.Sc. Informatik students from Freiburg studying after the old PO 2012, ''everybody'' else must take the written exam) take place on '''March 3 + 4 + 10 + 11, 2020''', 30 minutes each, in room 051-02-28 (office Prof. Bast). For your exact date and time, please see the information given in HISInOne.

At the beginning of the oral exam, each student will be shown ''four'' random topics (just the titles), from which they can select three. Grading is analogous to the grading of the written exam and happens right after the oral exam. For each topic, a maximum of 20 points can be reached. 

24 people were registered for the oral exams.
