Here are your solutions and comments on the previous exercise sheets: [[SearchEnginesWS0910/ExerciseSheet1|Solutions and Comments 1]], [[SearchEnginesWS0910/ExerciseSheet2|Solutions and Comments 2]], [[SearchEnginesWS0910/ExerciseSheet3|Solutions and Comments 3]], [[SearchEnginesWS0910/ExerciseSheet4|Solutions and Comments 4]], [[SearchEnginesWS0910/ExerciseSheet5|Solutions and Comments 5]], [[SearchEnginesWS0910/ExerciseSheet6|Solutions and Comments 6]], [[SearchEnginesWS0910/ExerciseSheet7|Solutions and Comments 7]], [[SearchEnginesWS0910/ExerciseSheet8|Solutions and Comments 8]].

The recordings of all lectures are now available, see above. Lecture 2 is missing because we had technical problems there. To play the Lecturnity recordings (.lpd files) you need the [[http://www.lecturnity.de/de/download/lecturnity-player|Lecturnity Player, which you can download here]]. I put the Camtasia recordings as .avi files, which you can play with any ordinary video player; I would recommend [[http://www.videolan.org/vlc|VLC]].

== Questions and comments about the mid-term exam or the second half of the semester below this line (most recent on top) ==

Note that the first lecture after the winter break will be on Thursday, January 7. Apart from a new regular topic, in that lecture I will also summarize your feedback from Exercise 4 of Sheet 8, and give my comments on it + explain various new rules which hopefully suit you better.
