Does anyone know what topics in the current study design are going to be changed for next year?

The study design remains mostly the same as the previous one with only minor changes as detailed below

  • Addition of algorithmics and pseudocode
  • Removal of matrices for transformations
  • Replacement of rectangular approximations with trapezoidal approximations

    Pseudocode/algorithms will probably make an already bloated subject more bloated than it already is. How are they even going to assess it, last question on exam 1 “write pseudocode for the sieve of Eratosthenes“ (10 marks)?

      It would probably make transformation questions more tedious as matrices were a nice concrete way of representing a transformation.

      They most likely won't ask you to write pages of pseudocode, I'm thinking they might assess interpretation and formulation of pseudocode. Think of things like root approximations (bisection method and newtons method as an algorithm).
