- Remark on FBAT homework assignment:
- Check out the KVS_Practical document to look up the formats of ped and phe files for FBAT software usage
- Ped files for FBAT should not have white lines ... Remove them and everything is ok
- Phe files for FBAT should have "-" instead of "." as missing data indications. Hence replace "space ." by "space -". Then it works

maximal 50% of the original total for that homework.
- Those who have handed in their homeworks in time will have an advantage when the final course scores are assessed.
- For the second session exam, the practical part of this course will involve redoing the homework for which you obtained the lowest score. The theoretical
