Detailed description:

A global assessment of the subject will be held, dividing the score in the following sections:

-Theory (up to 4 points): writting test. You have to reach at least 2 points to have a chance to add other scores

- Practices (up to 3 points): practices development at computer lab. You have to reach at least 1.5 points to have a chance to add other scores

- Lectures attendance: up to 0.5 points

- Practices attendance: up to 0.5 points

- Participation on exercises solving and publication on the wiki of this course: up to 2 points

In order to pass you have to reach at least 2 points at theory, 1.5 at practises and at least 5 points in the sum of the all evaluable sections.

In order to have right to the extraordinary call, it is mandatory to pass the practical part during the ordinary call.
