Schedule and assignments

Note: This schedule will be modified; please check for changes and additions frequently.

Starting with reading assignment 2, you are requested to email at least one topical question to your instructor within one hour of the start of class. [If your browser is correctly set up, this is most easily done using the links given in "Text Sections" in the schedule below.] If possible, your question will be addressed during the class lecture. In any case, your mailed question will be recorded for part of your "participation" grade in the course.

Note that in many of the Webassign problem sets there are some zero point "extra practice" problems set in the assignment for your consideration.
