New Practicals
I'm of course looking for ideas for new practicals. Some ideas,
for instance:
- students code their own automata using the techniques they've
learned in order to compete with other automata for some sort
of prize
- a required Matlab practical connected with the prelims
lecture course
If you're interested in developing new practicals, please let me
know and I'll add you to the list. (Senior demonstrators and
practical course admins, you're
on the list by default...)
