The lectures will take
place on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays in 151 SLOAN during 10-10.55
AM. The course will not follow any text, but will present a large chunk
of the material covered in chapters 8-12 in the second volume of T.
Apostol's Calculus. The approach taken in class will however be
different. Supplementary Notes will be posted weekly on the course web
site. We will cover the following topics in the course:

| Grading:
There will be weekly homework assignments, a
Midterm and a Final examination. The final grade will depend on a
composite of these factors; to be precise, the final will be worth 40
percent, while the homework and midterm will each be worth 30 percent.
No one will be excused from the final. Recitations: Please go to the recitations. Each week, a
portion of the recitation will be dedicated to introducing some
computational (or even theoretical) aspect which the Instructor will
not have time to present in class. In general, get to know your TA and
bug him/her to death (figuratively speaking) with your questions, and
try to fill in all the holes in your understanding. Homework: Homework is due Mondays at 10am and will be
posted on the course web site at least a week before it is due. All
problems may be done in collaboration with others. However, each
student must write down the solution in his/her own individual way and
there should be no two identical solutions to any problem. Do not
consult the solution sets from previous years in working this year's
problems. |
