Fall 2023
Linear Algebra and Programming (선형대수및프로그래밍)
Instructor: Dr. Muhammad Syafrudin
Course information
This course will cover linear algebra, with an emphasis on its applications. Students will study the theory as well as practical examples/exercises in the Python programming language throughout the lectures. Students are expected to grasp the principles of linear algebra theory and its implementation in the Python programming language by the end of the course.

Grading
The final grade will be calculated using the following weights:
| # | Final Grade Weight |
|---|---|
| Attendance | 10% |
| Assignment(quiz/homework/weekly assignment) | 20% |
| Mid exam | 30% |
| Final exam | 40% |
| Total | 100% |
Assignment
There will be a quiz/homework/weekly assignment to complete. Some of them will be due in a week and some of them in two weeks. You have the option to work and submit the homework in pairs for all the assignments except two which you will do individually.
Submitting an assignment
Instructions for turning in assignments will be posted when the semester starts (in e-campus (집현캠퍼스)).
Getting help
For questions about homework, course content, installation, and after you have tried to troubleshoot yourselves, the process to get help is: Post the question in e-campus (집현캠퍼스)/group chat and hopefully your peers will answer. Note that in e-campus (집현캠퍼스) questions are visible to everyone. For private matters send an email to helpline: udin [at] sju [dot] ac [dot] kr.
Course Policies
Collaboration policy
We encourage you to talk and discuss the assignments with your fellow students (and on e-campus (집현캠퍼스)), but you are not allowed to look at any other students assignment or code outside of your pair. Discussion is encouraged, copying is not allowed.
Late day policy
Homework is due before each class. Late submission are not allowed.
Communication to students
Class announcements will be through e-campus (집현캠퍼스). All homework and quizzes will be posted in e-campus (집현캠퍼스). Also all feedback forms. Important note: make sure you have your settings set so you can receive emails from e-campus (집현캠퍼스).
Academic honesty
We give a strong emphasis to Academic Honesty. As a student your best guidelines are to be reasonable and fair. We encourage teamwork for problem sets, but you should not split the homework and you should work on all the problems together.
