0) The Exercises Report should be submitted in pdf! (Word causes problems regularly due to different versions and operating systems) - so you dont have to send the WORD. please send in the matlab code(s) and other things as one archived (zipped, tgz, rar, ...) directory. FORMAT (grading 10 possible points/grade per sheet) 1) Feel free to copy questions, however, that is not necessary - its matter of taste. Actually it would be nicer if the answer(s) (in words) would reflect the question(s). Thus: answers should have some words (sentences) - not only formulas. (required for grade 8 or higher) 2) Figures should have (grade 9 or higher) axis labels (both), a legend if there are more lines/symbols, and a caption - i.e. the short text (again words) below the figure that describes it briefly. Assume you see the figure for the first time - what do you want to know about it? 3) For each figure (in a good text - grade 10), you have the following issues: a) what is plotted (and why)? b) what do we see (observation)? c) what does it mean? ... d) if you have multiple lines on top of each other - think about how you can improve the plot to make them visible ... CODING 4) Use indent-s within loops and if-s etc. and Add comments - sensible/important ones a) about the block/module b) for the non-trivial commands c) additional explanations, traps, warnings, etc. (required for grade 7 or higher) 5) Avoid identical pieces of code (duplications) ... If you decided to work with matlab: Use vectors/matrices/structures, whenever possible, to do so. ... You can use functions to do so too. (required if asked for - and required anyway for grade 9 or higher) 6) Read the warnings Matlab gives you a) Avoid growing vectors inside loops! declare outside! b) group declarations and definitions such that one can easily change things - dont repeat (change) parameters-changes - those are hard to locate. (required for grade 9 or higher) ... Think about that someone else might want to understand the code.
