The idea is to provide quick feedback on how the class is doing. Homework assignments include reading, problem sets and projects. I will assign written problem sets at a rate of roughly one every two weeks. The idea is to give you an opportunity to think more deeply about the concepts presented in the course. Problem sets contain questions similar to the ones that appear in the midterm and final exams.
Problem sets are to be done individually.
Please bring your completed problem set to class the day it's due. Homework are collected before the class begins. Note that no assignments will be accepted after the solutions for that assignment have been posted. Note also that no late submissions to will be accepted for the last assignment so we can post the solutions well in advance of the final exam. Some topics may require more time than is allotted, so the lecture schedule may get modified as we get further into the course.
