Solution for HW3 Questions 1+2 | |
|
Dear Students, In order to help you prepare for the midterm and understand the level of answers expected from you, we have uploaded a possible solution for the first and second exercises of the third problem set. You can find the solution under the assignments tab on the course website. Many of you also got the proof of question 3 wrong. We suggest that you go over the second problem (Vertex Cover for trees) of tutorial 7' for a technique for proving correctness of greedy algorithms. Good luck ! The course staff. |

Midterm information | |
|
Dear Students, The midterm will take place on Monday, 26.12, 18:30-20:30. The rooms for the midterm are Fischbach 405/504/505 and Taub 3,4,5,6,7,8. The material for the midterm includes everything up to and including week 8 (19.12). This means that greedy algorithms and (weighted) shortest paths methods from a single source (Dijkstra and Bellman-Ford) are in, but all pairs shortest paths (APSP) and dynamic programming are not. There may or may not be a problem given in homework (we don't commit to anything :) ). The midterm will include 3 questions. The midterm is 15% magen. There will be no Moed Bet for the midterm. This will be the front page of the midterm, please read it carefully: https://webcourse.cs.technion.ac.il/234247/Winter2016-2017/ho/WCFiles/MidtermFront.pdf . With the exam form, you'll be provided with the following formula sheet. Please note that you are not allowed to bring any other material with you: https://webcourse.cs.technion.ac.il/234247/Winter2016-2017/ho/WCFiles/Midterm_Formula_sheet.pdf . Good luck !

Change in Homework #3 | |
|
Dear Students, We have replaced the shortest paths exercises in the third assignment by greedy and Huffman related problems. The replaced questions will appear in the following problem set. We have also postponed the due date of the assignment by a day to Tuesday, 20.12, at midnight. Best, The course staff. |

Change of tutorial schedule | |
|
Dear Students, To sync the tutorials better with the lectures, we have changed the order of tutorials. This week all groups but Tuesday's 9:30 class will see the "Greedy+Huffman" tutorial which now appears on the course website. Next week, Tuesday's 9:30 class will see the greedy tutorial while the remaining groups will go over the first shortest path tutorial. Since the assignment contains shortest path problems, we will shortly replace those with greedy/Huffman exercises, and give an appropriate extension to the submission deadline. If you have already started solving those - don't worry, they will appear in the next assignment. If you are attending Tuesday's 9:30 class - don't panic ! you'll have enough time to complete the assignment, including the greedy algorithm exercises, after you learn about it in class next week :). Best, The course staff. |
