There has been an earlier version of this course called STK4050. At the STK4050 exam web-page there are some earlier exams that are relevant. Note however that this only cover half of the course, the Monte Carlo part. Optimization was not a part of STK4050.

1 e): The Gamma(0.01,0.01) prior can be problematic for some chosen algorithms. You can then try out Gamma(0.1,0.1) instead. Do however clearly specify your choise.

2a): The question here was perhaps a bit unclear. The expressions will depend on the data as well.
