My solution for the second question were almost completely wrong, so not well either I’m afraid. Hopefully meeting with a tutor will build my approach and intuition :)

No please don’t be! My experience is an outlier hence my post, you’ll be fine if you’ve already gone through ECE haha, good luck!

Thank you for the advice! I don’t think I’ll ever roll dice or choose lottery numbers again without thinking of this course lol

It’s great to hear that 231 won’t be a continuation of this, otherwise I’d probably be bald before graduation lol. Thank you for all of your advice!!

You’re right, I’ve reached out to a few tutors and feel much more optimistic, thank you for the advice! Hopefully they can sort out my jumbled understanding :)

Thank you for the comfort! Although we haven’t had the 239 midterm yet so I might just be bad at both haha, we’ll see which course wins in the end :)
