Weekly Homeworks

We will have a short homework assignment every week. The homeworks are meant to be fairly straight-forward and to simply enable you (and the instructor!) to check that you are following the basic material covered in class and the reading. Many of the questions are the exams are likely to be similar to those in the homeworks.

Some of the homework will be pencil and paper analysis, a few will be short essays, and some will be relatively simple programming assignments. Each is graded on a ten point scale.
