Course Information
Aims and Objectives
Final grades will base on the results of two problem sets (worth 10% each),
one in-class quiz (20%) and the final exam (60%).
A problem set is usually due at the beginning of a class.
As a general rule, any problem set turned in up to one week late will
be penalized 20%, and no homework will be accepted beyond one week
past its due date.
