Exercises

All the exercises in the book are useful (in the sense that none of the exercises are totally irrelevant with respect to the exam). But there is a lot of exercises, and each and one of you might have specific needs and interests. Below I recommend a few exercises from three different categories.

• Category  I (recommended exercises of medium/high degree of difficulty). Section 7.3.1, page 212: ex 4; Section 7.4.1, page 223: ex 3, ex 6, ex 8; Section 7.5.1, page 234: ex 3 (a) and (b); ex 4; ex 5.
• Category II (easy exercises which each and one of should convince yourself that you are able to solve). Section 7.3.1, page 212: ex 1, ex 2, ex 3 (a), ex 5 (a); Section 7.4.1 page 223: ex 1, ex 2.
• Category III (interesting, but potentially laborious exercises, for those of you who want to learn a little bit more than what is necessary for passing the exam). Section 7.3.1, page 212: ex 8, ex 9; Section 7. 4.1, page 223: ex 5; Section 7.5.1, page 234: ex 6.
