Homeworks

 The homework problems are designed to help understand the material discussed during the lectures and they will be assigned on a weekly basis. You are encouraged to solve these problems as the material is presented in class, to reinforce what you have learned during lecture. Links to the homework assigments (in pdf format) will be uploaded on a regular basis.
There will a total of 12 homeworks, and only three of the problems from each set are required to be turned in. Each homework set will be worth 20 points (each graded problem is worth five points and up to five extra points will be given for completion of the assignment) . No late homework will be accepted, but the two lowest scores will be dropped.
