Assignments

Problems are from the textbook, unless otherwise noted.

Solutions to assignments (credit or not) will be posted on Monday, as a rule. Please, use them to "self-grade" your work. I'll be happy to discuss with you any questions or issues that might arise out of this self-assessment (or out of any other event as well).
