That is interesting. Would I be overstepping boundaries if I asked to
see the course material? My particular university makes the course
material public, but I know that not all universities do this. Thanks,
Andreas.

Off-topic: In which language do you teach Octave? We are learning
Matlab in our native language, but I have been told by Russian
students that in Russia programming languages are taught using English
terminology. I see that you are from Switzerland, so you have a rich
choice of languages to choose from!
