Homework 1

Due by 11:00pm on April 11, 2019.

Note: Submit a pdf file via the Canvas assignment page Homework 1.

• hw1.pdf
• See Homework format for a discussion of formatting. Please use latex if possible (or a Jupyter notebook) for the analytical questions.
• If you want to use latex for your solutions, you can start with the file hw1.tex, which includes commented-out sections where you can insert solutions. This can be found in the class repository (after cloning and perhaps doing a git pull, see Class GitHub Repository) as $AM586/homeworks/hw1/hw1.tex. Note that this uses some macros from the file $AM586/homeworks/latex/macros.tex.
• If you use a notebook for part or all of this, please submit both the .ipynb file and the .html or .pdf file that is generated via the Files –> Download as... menu, or with the jupyter nbconvert command. If you use a Python script, please submit the .py file.
