62059-01 - Practical course: Theory of Computer Science (2 CP)
| Semester | spring semester 2026 |
| Further events belonging to these CP |
62059-01 (Practical course) 62059-02 (Practical course) 62059-03 (Practical course) |
| Course frequency | Every spring sem. |
| Lecturers | Gabriele Röger (gabriele.roeger@unibas.ch, Assessor) |
| Content | The exercises on the Theory of Computer Science deepen the understanding obtained in the main course (10948). |
| Learning objectives | The participants will develop a precise understanding of initially intuitive concepts such as computability and complexity. This will enable them to determine the fundamental hardness of computer science problems and to infer consequences for practical approaches. |
