Suggested Exercises
Note: these exercises are intended to explore in further detail
some issues raised in the lectures, and encourage you to extend
further the techniques that have been developed there. They are not
intended to reflect the kind of questions that might come up in an
exam. Please have a look at past exam papers for an idea of what
kinds of questions might be asked.
Also, it is not intended that each of the exercise sheets can be covered in a single supervision. Supervisors may (if they wish) select from these exercises ones suitable for setting as supervision work.
