Guidelines for writing and submitting your homework:
- Show all work. Write clearly and legibly, in complete sentences.
- Do all problems in sequence if possible.
For each solution, identify clearly the section and problem number
(e.g. 1.2, 1.30). Staple your assignment.
- You may discuss the
homework with other students, but the final write-up must be your own.
-
If you cannot come to class, ask a friend to hand in your assignment,
drop it off at your instructor's office before class on the due date,
or email a typed or scanned copy before the deadline. (Please make sure that the scanned file is legible.)
Late homework will not be accepted.
- Homework assignments do not have to be typeset.
If you would like to type your assignments, we recommend using a typesetting program
called Latex. This page (set up by Prof. Rechnitzer for a different class) provides a variety of latex links and resources (including online tools you can use). However, please note that we will not be able to offer technical help or answer latex-related questions.
