The Hebrew source [HTML] of this database has been badly translated into English by a student, and should be improved. Assembled booklet of all exercises [PDF] is available. You can browse all the files in the pool. The right column comments on the status of the exercise: [L/C/H] means lecture or class or home exercise; [e] means educational focus question on lecture material; and [+/-] means recommended or not recommended.
