Assignments

Coursework is worth 25% of your mark. There are five coursework assignments, each worth 5%.

Note: The coursework is not a light load! But everyone who does the work should score perfectly on the exam. (Literally. 100%. That's what proof is for.)

The assignment schedule is here.

Good scholarly practice

Please remember the University requirement as regards all assessed work. Details about this can be found at:

http://web.inf.ed.ac.uk/infweb/admin/policies/academic-misconduct

Furthermore, you are required to take reasonable measures to protect your assessed work from unauthorised access. For example, if you put any such work on a public repository then you must set access permissions appropriately (generally permitting access only to yourself, or your group in the case of group practicals).

Past papers

Exam

The final examination is worth 75% of your mark.

Unlike most courses, TSPL has an online exam where you use the Agda proof assistant to assist and confirm your exam work. Because you will be working with Agda throughout the course, you will also have access to Agda for the exam. If anyone has any questions or concerns, please contact the instructor.

The final exam for TSPL is in December 2018
