The course grade is calculated as follows:

Homework:

There will be weekly homework assignments, due each Thursday, concerning the topics covered in the previous week. Group I assignments are fairly straightforward; Group II require a bit more thought. You may discuss the problems with one another, but you should try them on your own at first. Also, you must write up your own solutions yourself. Late homework will not be accepted, except under special circumstances. In such cases, make arrangments in advance with the grader.
