Hi all,
The midterm, covering possibly all course material until week 8, will take place on Wednesday, April 16, from 8:15 AM until 11:15 AM, in room AAC 231 (normally, there is room for everyone there; in the worst case, we have reserved another room nearby, but please all come to AAC 231 first).
There was no midterm last year, but we have posted last year's exam on Moodle, out of which two exercises are of the type you can expect for the midterm.
For the midterm, no electronic devices allowed, but a cheat sheet of two single-sided (or equivalently, one double-sided) A4 page, handwritten, or prepared with stylet+ipad.
All the best, and see you tomorrow for the next steps in exploring Shor's algorithm,
Olivier
