There will be biweekly homeworks in this course, each worth 20 points. Late fee of 5 points will be applied to late hw assignments, which will only be accepted before the graded hw is returned. Poorest scores will be dropped at the end of the semester. Online quizzes will be given approximately once a week. They are designed primarily to help you evaluate your level of preparation and will not carry more than 10% of your hw score.
You can use the sheets provided on this page or your own ones to submit your homeworks, but in any case please make sure to SIGN YOUR NAME on your sheet! Anonymous homeworks will not be counted. And PLEASE try to write legibly!
Before you start doing exercises in any of the sections, try doing problems discussed in the Book.
GOOD LUCK!
