Homework Assignment #4 

These are to be worked individually.   Each student is to hand in her/his own assignment at the Catalyst Drop Box the HW4.  However, you are expected to communicate with your partner, discuss strategies for solving the problems, etc.  In the end, you are to solve it yourself, and your solution should not be identical to your partner’s.  What is not allowed is for you to jointly solve the set and turn in your collaborative solution.

The following are to be completed and handed in electronically in final form by Saturday, February 18, 2012, at 11:59 PM.   The assignment will be accepted up to 24 hours late for 75% credit and up to 48 hrs late for 50% credit.  For each problem hand in whatever is needed for me to understand your work.  This should certainly include a program listing (m-file), the relevant output, and any notes needed to understand your approach.  The notes should all be gathered in one Word document.  The m-files and outputs can either be cut into the Word document or submitted separately as part of the *zip archive.  The m-files and outputs, if submitted separately, need to have file names that identify them as a particular homework problem.  Your name should be on the Word document and in the comments of the code..
