The subject does not officially require any prerequisite, but it is assumed that the student has completed and passed the subjects of "Algebra" and "Differential and integral calculus" of the first year. It is required to have practice in differentiating and integrating one-variable functions.
In the learning process it is fundamental the own work of the student, who at all times will have the help of the professor.
The hours of class are distributed in:
Theory: The teacher introduces the basic concepts corresponding to the subject, showing examples of their application. The student will have to complement the explanations of the professors with the personal study.
Problems: By completing sets of exercises, the comprehension and application of the concepts and tools introduced in the theory class is attained . The student will have lists of problems, a part of which will be solved in the problem classes. Students should work on the remaining ones as part of their autonomous work.
Seminars: to reach a deeper understanding of the subject the students work o in group on more complex practical problems. Some seminars will deal with computer-aid approach to solving problems.
Annotation: Within the schedule set by the centre or degree programme, 15 minutes of one class will be reserved for students to evaluate their lecturers and their courses or modules through questionnaires.

A continuous assessment is performed based on four controls:
a) Two written tests combining theory and problems, one P1 related to part A, another P2 related to part B.
b) Submission of two sets of exercises, one LL1 on part A, another LL2 on part B. Can be completed at home and uploaded to Campus Virtual. Their mean is LLP.
Submissions in b) are manadatory, with no resit assesment.
If both P1, P2 have been attended, a grade C1 is generated according to C1=(0,20)LLP+(0,40)(P1+P2). If C1 is at least 5, the final grade is C1.
Students with C1<5 and having submitted b) and students willing to improve their grade, may attend a resit exam, with grade R.
The final grade C2 after the resit exam is C2=(0,20)LLP+(0,80) R.
For students improving their grade, the final score is MAX(C1,C2).
