The final  exam will be based on the practice one, so if you have any comments or suggestions concerning the practice exam, please let me know.

For each class I will have several suggested problems from the book. Some of them are supposed to test if you simply understood definitions. You do not have to turn these exercises in. However if you find some of them intriguing and/or interesting, it would be great if you could put it in writing and explain why. I would be very happy to read it.

Occasionally, I will post more challenging problems. I recommend that you try to think about them and maybe write something. Again I would be very happy to read it.

There will be an exam at the end of the course. The final grade will be based on the exam.
I might take into consideration for the final grade how active a student has been in responding to the challenging problems and to some of the suggested exercises.

Look in the schedule for the info on days, times, and rooms. This changes often!
