Specifications and recommendations

Late homework will be discounted and, at the discretion of the grader and/or the instructor, may not be accepted.

Your homework should be neatly written and well-organized, with the pages securely fastened together and your name on every page. Many of the exercises involve several nontrivial steps; make it clear to your readers (and yourself!) what it is you're doing at each step.

Clearly number the exercises and try to submit them in numerical order; if any problems are out of sequence, indicate that at the beginning of the assignment. (You don't need to solve them in order, just submit them in order.) The grader should not have to hunt through several pages to find a particular problem.

Computer use

You may use symbolic computation packages (e.g. Maple or Mathematica to carry out the routine calculations in the homework; please check with the instructor if you have any doubt as to what would be considered routine in a given context. If you use such software, please write up the key steps of your solutions by hand, indicating which parts were carried out by computer and attaching a hardcopy of your computer work, or prepare an organized 'notebook'.

Computer difficulties do not justify late or incomplete assignments.
