abstract

• The aim of this monograph course is that the students will gain an elementary intuitive and formal background to understanding the present state of astronomical research about the shape of the Universe. The emphasis will be on observational strategies. General relativity and the details of modern observational cosmology will only be presented very briefly; students who are interested will need to develop deeper understanding through their own reading and other courses.

5.0 punkty zaliczenia na wims - jak jest obliczony

• Możesz zdobyć aż do 5.0 punkty za ćwiczenia w wims:
  • gdzie
    • jest ile% done dla danym "sheet" - między 0.0 i 1.0
    • jest "quality" (jakość) - między 0.0 i 1.0; potęga 0.3 implikuje, że efekt jest, ale jest słabo oprócz jeśli quality jest bardzo niska...
  • równowalna sposoba liczyć:
    • home
      • My scores
        • Global average: ile over 5. Tutaj, ile jest ile punkty masz razem
• Wzor dla jednego cwiczenia po m razy, gdzie to ocen między 0.0 i 1.0, to . Tzn, , to uwazone srednio, gdzie najostatnich razy sa najwazniejszy.
• Chromium/Chrome bug: As of 2020 to 2024, the chromium/chrome browser software has a bug that prevents the display of some of the exercises. Firefox is one browser without the bug.
