Dates
indicate homework assigned in lecture that day. Dates
for future assignments are tentative, and subject to change.
(However, it
will be similar to the homework posted here.)
Skimming
through the main ideas in a section shortly before that section is
covered in class should help you understand the lecture -- try it!
Also,
see the links to practice
quizzes/tests on my website.
