Monday:
- Homework 0: Before class on Monday, you should
download a copy of the text from the "Files" tab on our canvas
page and read/skim sections 1.1 thru 1.4. Also download
homework-0 from the gradescope page and answer the
survey questions there. Then upload a PDF file with your
answers in gradescope. Part of the point of homework-0
is to make sure everyone is comforable with gradescope
and the process of uploading solutions and linking the problems
to their respective pages. Also, it's fun to tell your friends
that there was an assignment due the first day of class. (Note
Homework-0 is simply a survey and can be turned in anytime --
preferably this
week. It is not part of your grade.)
- Solutions: The solutions to (most of) the
exercises in Sections 1.1 to 1.3 can be found at the end of the text.
These are also fair game for the Typo competition. As we
progress through the term, more solutions will be avaliable
under the files tab on our canvas page.
- Do: Ex 1.4.1, Ex 1.4.7(a), Ex 1.4.8, Ex 1.4.12.
- Study: (Not to be turned in.) If you ever might teach
this stuff, you should have a look at most of the exercises in
Section 1.3 and 1.4. Especially Ex 1.4.3-5.

Wednesday:
- Read Section 1.5.
- Do: Ex 1.5.2 and Ex 1.5.8.
- Study: Ex 1.5.9 and Ex 1.5.10.
|
Friday:
- Read Sections 2.1 and 2.2. Since I've fallen a bit behind,
we probably won't finish section 2.2 today. But you shuold be
able to work on everything by Ex 2.2.3 and Ex 2.2.5. (Ex 2.2.5
is really untanglind definitions, but it will probably be tricky
for most.) Please turn in the first three assignments by
Tuesday evening. This will give you time to stop by office
hours if you need some help or hints.
- Do: Ex 2.1.8, Ex 2.2.3, Ex 2.2.5
- Study: Ex 2.1.4, Ex 2.1.6, Ex 2.2.4, Ex 2.2.7 (This is
tricky, but gives another version of Thm 2.6 without the
unmotivated step of the proof).
