There will be three major tests during the course of the semester. You are expected to do the work using only the information and abilities in your own mind, without consulting any mortal being. Arrangements for a makeup test should be made before the time scheduled for the test if possible. In any event, I should be contacted on the day of the scheduled test, otherwise you don't get a makeup test unless you can verify that you were unconscious beyond your control through no fault of your own. Homework will not be graded except on the odd chance that I make it part of the credit for a test or program.
Homework is for preparation for program assignments and tests.
The problems assigned are indicative of the types of problems which may appear on tests. If you do not understand a problem, get help quickly. To expect success in this class, you should do all homework assignments on the day they are assigned . This course always has applications through a computer in mind. I am not an applied mathematician and am only marginally familiar with these.
