Homework, Winter 2010
The
homework written here is strongly recommended. It will help you
solidify the bases that you have learnt during the lectures, and test
whether you understood them or not. Answers will be posted regularly,
and should be discussed in Section. Homework answers provided usually
study the problem in much more depth than required, to give you as much
material as possible to look at. Week 1:
- Homework for Friday 01/08
- Note: there's a lot of it! Don't try to do all the problems. The strategy is : Read the problems one by one. If you think it's completely trivial, and have done 100s of similar problems, move to the next problem. If you think it's trivial but you've never done it, try to start the problem. If it goes where you thought it should go, you're ok, move to the next problem. Otherwise, finish it and make sure there aren't any hidden surprises. If you think it's going to be hard, and/or are not quite sure about it, then DO the problem ..
