Exams dates will be announced in about 3 weeks. If possible, some exams will be Monday evenings.

Make sure to give a SOLUTION, not just answers. Answers for this problem are trivial; it is a soln that is interesting). P.10: 12. P.19: 3, 8, 17. P.27: 5. (This problem is actually on P.28, but I name problem sets by the starting-page of the set. ) ================================================================ CLASS-PHOTO DAY: Monday, 01Sep2008.
