| An award of some sort | A facsimile of the recognition award received by students who attended/endured every lecture (as far as course management knows!) this semester. Joy and pity combine, and I declare my continuing ambition to make each future lecture more worthwhile! Thanks to these students and others. | 12/10/2003 | ||

More errors were found in problems 11 and 18, and these have been fixed! Again, I thank Ms. Calinescu and regret the errors. | 12/4/2003 | ||

Review problems for the second exam |
Students will work on these problems and present solutions
on Thursday, November 13. I also invite students to send me solutions
by e-mail
to these problems, and I will construct a
web page with the first
valid answers sent to me for each problem. You may also find these links useful. A misprint in the first problem has been corrected. I also note that the writer doesn't know how to count: problems 6 and 7 seem to be missing. I thank Mr. Kurian for this observation, and I apologize. Sigh. I meant limit as x-->0 in problem 10c. The answer is still 0 but l'Hopital's rule must be applied twice. I corrected this from x-->infinity which is easier to do (one application of l'H) with the same answer. I am sorry. I finally saw the misprint during the review session. | 11/16/2003 | ||
