          Final grade depends on lab/home work defence and exam results.
          7 practical works should be done and its report defended. On time (one week after measurements) defended work will give 5 points, if defended with delay - only 2 points.
          There are 2 homeworks with 3 tasks. Each task gives 5 points maximum.
          In general, works during the semester give 5 X 10 = 50 point max if defended on time. And 2 X 10 = 20 points minimum if all works are defended with a delay.
          Exam is open book and lasts for 4 hours with 4-6 tasks of different difficulties (Max number of points 50).
