 Handouts
In the following, you will find the handouts of this course. I  try to make the tutorial and test questions and solutions available as soon as possible. (Unfortunately, this is often not until shortly after each tutorial.)

 Lectures Schedule and Homework
 

See here a running list of topics covered in class.  All problems listed in blocks are ^odd numbers only ̄ unless specified  - expect changes as the  semester progresses.   Try to complete the problem sets listed using the examples in the book, even though we may not have had enough time to discuss the entire section during the previous class period.  We will look at questions you have on these homework problems.   Reminder:  I have carefully picked a variety of problems from the complete list of problems in each section, so do not assume you only need to do part of what was listed, because you could do the first few successfully.
