Yes, you are expected to know the algorithms and concepts discussed in the lectures, even though the lecture material itself will not be available during the exam.
However, this does **not** mean that you need to memorize every piece of pseudocode word for word. What is important is that you understand the underlying ideas of the algorithms and are able to apply them to concrete examples. In particular, you should know when and how an algorithm is used, and be able to carry out its steps in typical situations. One think to keep in mind is that most of the algorithms used the Floor-function.
The specified concepts or algorithm descriptions will generally **not** be provided on the exam. That said, many exam problems do not depend on recalling a specific algorithm in full, so it is still possible to earn points even if you do not remember every detail of every algorithm.
The exams are designed with a balanced variety of problems, as you can see from the old exams, so that the full range of grades from A to F can be fairly distributed. Some problems test conceptual understanding, some test application, and some may require familiarity with particular lecture algorithms.
