Course Syllabus:

PDF format (+ other administrative FAQ's)

Homework Assignments and Notes: HW4A+HW4B due Feb. 15.

Materials: Handout on CLs, Infinite LLs, and Types of Limit Definitions.


Solutions to HW 3: posted a day before the quiz and to be taken off the web in a week. Do NOT ask for solutions to be posted earlier: you must attempt to do your homework without help from posted solutions. If you are late copying them, or you lose them, or some other thing happens: do NOT ask us for the files of the previous solution since we do NOT distribute electronic files of the HW solutions. Instead, ask your classmates for the HW solution files.


Midterm 1

0. Midterm 1 is on Thursday, Feb 16, in class. There are no make-up midterms. Midterm 1 will be on the material from the beginning of the semester up to (and inclusive) of what is covered in lectures this week on Feb. 7 and Feb. 9, plus everything from sections and HW1,2,3,4. Thus, study carefully all problems in the HW solutions. Read the class syllabus if you have other questions on the midterm. The GSIs and I will not address questions on the exams that are answered in the syllabus or on this website.

1. Review for Midterm 1

2. Instructions for Midterm 1: PDF format. The number of problems on the exam may vary from what is written in these instructions; but everything else will be just about the same. Thus, make sure that you read now these instructions carefully now, to save time during the exam. The specifications for the cheat sheet and what can and cannot be used on the midterm are also included there; do NO ask us questions about the cheat sheet: it is only 1 page (one side) of a regular sheet of paper, only handwritten by you (no typing on computers, no xeroxing and pasting or other ``high-tech" stuff).

3. Quizzes on Wed, Feb. 15 will proceed as usual in sections.

4. Special accommodations for DSP students on Midterm 1. There are 2 DSP students for whom I have received official documentation from the DSP office, requesting special accommodations on exams. If you are one of these 2 students, it is absolutely crucial that you contact me on Tuesday, Feb. 7 or Thursday, Feb. 9 (in office hours!) to receive instructions on when and where you will be taking Midterm 1. If you do not contact me by Feb 9 in office hours, you will have to take the exam under regular conditions with the rest of the class: thus, observe the class syllabus about contacting me by Feb 9 in office hours (in person, not by e-mail).
