Assessment Details
- This module is examined in a 2-hour examination at the end of Semester 2.
- Students are assessed based on the exam alone.
- The module is passed if the overall mark for the module is 40% or more. If the overall mark for the module is less than 40% and there is no possibility of compensation, the module will be reassessed as follows:
1) A failed exam in combination with passed continuous assessment will be reassessed by an exam in the supplemental session;
2) The combination of a failed exam and failed continuous assessment is reassessed by the supplemental exam;
3) A failed continuous assessment in combination with a passed exam will be reassessed by one or more summer assignments in advance of the supplemental session.
Contact Hours
11 weeks of teaching with 3 lectures per week.
Learning Outcomes
On successful completion of this module, students will be able to
- Apply basic theorems on complex sequences and series, with a special emphasis on power series.
- Use these theorems to calculate coefficients and radii of convergence of power series.
- State basic properties of analytic functions and apply known theorems to simple examples.
- State Cauchy's theorems and use them to compute contour integrals.
- Prove and use properties of important examples of analytic functions, including rational, exponential, logarithmic, trigonometric and hyperbolic functions.
