Homeworks

These are suggested problems that will help you study for the final exam (you don't have to turn these in). Some of these problems will appear on the Exams. These will be weighted more heavily than others to give you an incentive to do them all. You may work on Homework problems in a group, if you so desire. Please make sure that YOU understand the solution method, because that is the value of doing the problems.
