List of formulas

Dear students,
the following compilation contains some important formulas for the exam.
Please note that this PDF document is for exam preparation only. However, this collection of formulas will also
be made available to you during the exam:
- On campus exam: The list of formulas will be printed out for you as part of the exam and must be returned
with the other pages of the exam.
- Online exam: The list of formulas is available for you on the platform of the proctoring provider and you
can download it there before the exam is started by password entry.
