Evaluation:
40% : weekly assignments (due Tuesdays 11:59pm on crowdmark; drop 1)
20% : midterm test Wednesday March 9 (during lecture time)
40% : final examination (April 11, 2-5pm; in-person if possible; room TBD; comprehensive)
Please discuss lectures and homework problems freely, and consult available sources. Then write up your solutions individually, in your own words, and be ready to defend them! Your work will be judged on the clarity of your presentation as well as correctness and completeness.

Late submissions will be marked summarily at the end of the term. Note that crowdmark stops accepting uploads at some point after the deadline. In that case, please email me your assignment, making sure each problem appears in a separate attachment. On the first page of the first problem, please state the reason for the delay, then date and sign.

Absences. If you miss a substantial part of the course, please keep me updated. A Verification of Illness or Injury form is currently not required, see the University's policy.
