Section 4.5 Final Test

4.5.1 Final Test Module 4

This is a test for submission:
  • Unlike open exercises, no hints for formulating mathematical expressions are provided.
  • The test can be restarted or interrupted at any time.
  • The test can be terminated and submitted using the buttons at the end of the page, or reset.
  • The test can be attempted several times. Only the last version will be included in the statistics.
