The book is nice and generally it is a good idea to read it.

The issue on the answer key is very simple: dont look it up.

Please, spend 10 minutes before class to review the material.

Here are the one pages you wrote. Enjoy.


General Policy: The plan of the course is to discuss chapters of Spivak: Calculus and some additional material. There will be weekly homework, which is usually to be handed in on Mondays and given back on Wednesdays. There will be a midterm and a final. There might be a few in-class quizzes throughout the quarter (announced in advance).

You are strongly encouraged to work on homework in groups, but the writing up must be done individually. You are not allowed to use the answer key since homework performance is part of the grade.

Course grading: 

·  Homework and quizzes: 20%

·  Midterm: 30%

·  Final: 50%

·  Class participation and * problems: 20% bonus
