Announcements:

 

·  Course syllabus [syllabus] is posted on Dec. 26th, 2016.

·  We will have homework assignments, from which we will select and have similar problems for six bi-weekly exams so that we can have timely feedback on lectures and learning. Homework assignments will not be graded based on randomly selected problems and the solutions to homework problems will be discussed during recitations before each bi-weekly exam, which will also be held during recitations. Hence, participation in recitations is required for the course.
