Guidelines for writing and submitting your homework:
- Show all work. Write clearly and legibly, in complete sentences. Remember that you will be graded
both on your command of the material and on the quality of your writing.
- Do all problems in sequence if possible.
For each solution, identify clearly the section and problem number
(e.g. 1.2, 1.30). Staple your assignment.
- You may discuss the
homework with other students, but the final write-up must be your own.
-
If you cannot come to class, ask a friend to hand in your assignment
or drop it off at your instructor's office before class on the due date.
Late homework will not be accepted.
- In Sections 201 and 202, we will not require homework assignments to be typeset.
If you would like to type your assignments, we recommend using a typesetting program
called Latex. This page, set up by Prof. Rechnitzer for his section of the course, provides a variety of latex links and resources (including online tools you can use). However, please note that we will not be able to offer technical help or answer latex-related questions.
