Homework

Turn in every Thursday class.
20% deduction for lateness by one day without reason, else 100%.
Solutions will be posted on this web site.
Please turn in a readable and organized homework. This is a big class! Here is a suggestion:

• Write your name and student ID on top of each and every page;
• Start answering a question always on the top of the page.
