This course also had a laboratory component where the students could get some hands-on experience and some individual help, as needed. The lab exercises were directly tied to the classroom lectures and to the HW assignments given in the course, so they gave the students a good feel for the topics they really needed to master.
As a good resource of additional examples, a set of links to the lab exercises used in Fall 2017, along with (some rather poorly) scanned versions of the instructor's solutions, is given below -- enjoy:
