CALCULUSFMA645

Higher education credits: 13,5. Grading scale: TH. Level: G1 (First level). Language of instruction: The course will be given in Swedish. FMA645 overlap following cours/es: ??1690, ??1691, FMA415, FMAA01, FMAA05, FMA415, FMAA01 och FMAA05. Compulsory for: IBYA1, IBYI1, IBYV1, IDA1, IDL1. Course coordinator: Director of Studies, Lars-Christer Böiers, Lars_Christer.Boiers@math.lth.se, Matematik. Assessment: Written test in all subcourses. The first subcourse is graded as Passed och Not passed. The courses Calculus 1 and 2 are when passed graded in a scale from 3.0 to 6.0 in steps of 0.1. The final grade is the integer part of the mean of these two grades (at most 5). In the subcourse Algebra some oral assignments should be completed. Parts: 3.
