Homework

There will be 5 homework assignments during the quarter, requiring a combination of analytical and programming work. See Homework format below for information on the desired format.

There will also be an open-book midterm exam and a take-home final exam.

Schedule (tentative)

Homework format

Homework should be submitted online via the Canvas page.

Written solutions should be submitted as pdf files (not Word, please). Ideally these should be typeset using latex. (See Latex for some sources). If necessary you can hand write and scan, but typeset work is much easier to grade and is good practice.

You can also write analytical solutions in an IPython notebook if you wish to, which makes it particularly easy to mix analysis with code illustrations. If you do so, submit both the .ipynb file and also the pdf generated by nbconvert.

For computer code, please include suitable documentation to describe what you’ve done and also explain it in your written solutions when appropriate. Include appropriate figures in your writeup.
