Homework Assignments

Note that following homework list can change at anytime and dates will change as the semester progresses. When changes are made, they will occur weeks in advance.

Homework is only accepted at the beginning of class.

Note: Problems in red are to be done using Maple or some other CAS. We will work those problems, chosen by the students, during the lab time. For Maple help, see below under Maple help.

Exam and Quiz Review Material

I recommend that you study your homework, especially the graded problems, and anything else on these lists. Don't focus on a particular old exam because I rotate questions and concepts.
