- Maybe a little more than "No, not at all", but the focus was a lot different from the lectures. And 3 out of 7 tasks regarding proofs of discrete mathematics are maybe a bit to much. Even if the whole plan this year was to make a harder exam compared to last year"s exam...» (No, not at all)
- The exam vas very bad and did not reflect the importent parts of the course. Very unfair compered with last years test! » (No, not at all)
- The examination didn"t reflect the course at all... » (No, not at all)
- Bengt said it would be harder. It was, but instead it did not correspond to the course. Set algebra may be good to understand, but the course is about systems. How to create and synchronize etc. This was a bad change.» (No, not at all)
- I think the exam didn"t reflect the course. There were not many exercises that looked like them we had practiced on. » (To some extent)
- The examination was not fair in the sense that it only tested parts of the course which where the last 10 percent of the total.» (To some extent)
- The exam did not match the lectures, several question did not have relation to the excerices that were given out to solve.» (To some extent)
- The exam was a bit too hard. Bengt told us that he was aiming to make it harder this year. And the difference from earlier years was radical.» (Yes, definitely)

- There are lots of grammatical errors in the lecture notes that made me lose focus often and get confused.» (Small extent)

- Good papers and good connection to the lessons.» (Large extent)
- The literature was written by Bengt, and it is absolutely the best. As always with Lennartssons literature.» (Great extent)

15. What should definitely be changed to next year?

- Edit the lecture notes. Focus more on Implementation.»
- better quality assignments in terms of material coverage.»
- The hand-ins could be extended.»
- skip or shorten chapter 2, find the mistakes in the solutions to the exercises, a bit more proofs»
- Maybe add one more labb. »
- presenting some more practical applications of this course.»
- Nothing definetly. May be a bit more lectures about extended/stochastic automata (Chapter 8)»
- Nothing really.»
- Change the exam to something in between "the old" and "the new" exam. »
- Put more previous exams on the homepage!!! One is not enough. Especially if you make an exam totally different from previous years.»
- The exercises, and the relevance of the exam questions.»

- The very late introduction of new stuff the very last day of the week 7»

16. Additional comments

- none.»
- i can advise this course every interested exchange student.»
- The course was very interesting, thank you very much.»
- Bengt Lennartsson did a great job as always. He deserves all appreciation.»
- From 60% grade 5 to 60% grade U?»
- Very good lectures/hearings!»
