| Homework: |
Assignments will usually be given at every lecture,
due for next Monday. No late homework will be accepted. You are
encouraged to do (or at least read) the unassigned exercises of the
corresponding section as well. You may discuss the problems with others,
but you must write your own solutions. Explain your solutions well,
giving just the "final answers" is not sufficient.
I will make an effort to regularly post the homework on the webpage
http://www.math.uncc.edu/~ghetyei/courses/1105/hw.html
.
In case of a discrepancy, the "official version" is the one I
have told in class.
|
| Evaluation: |
Grades will be based on: 20% for each of the three tests,
30 % for the final exam, and 10% for the homework.
