Worksheets
We'll have a number of Mathematica assignments as we go along. Mathematica is a computer algebra computer program which helps
with the computations and also with visualization. It will also be of critical use on exams and quizzes, so you'll want to install a copy on your laptop. See the "student installation section.
- Homework
-100 pts.-
Weekly assignments will be posted on the Moodle Server and are due the Monday after being assigned. Working together to solve the problems is absolutely fine, but you must write up your own solutions. I'll also assign a few "group homework assignments."

There will be 3 absolutely superb midterm exams!
each worth 100pts and several announced quizes worth between 25 and 50 points each.
