Notes on the homework.

We will discuss some problems from the list at the end of each section in class. Note that the answer to exercises with a star after the number is given in Appendix E of the textbook, so these will not be contained in the model solutions.

Only those exercises in boldface are to be handed in. The other exercises (in parentheses) will be discussed in class.

Proofs marked SRF are to be done in Statement-Reason-Form, the others in paragraph style.

Groups of up to 4 people are allowed. But make sure you understand all of your group's solution! You may be required to demonstrate your understanding in class.
