Office hours tomorrow (Thursday 10/10)

Hi everyone,

My office hours tomorrow will not be at the regularly scheduled time, but instead:

  • 9:00am – 10:00am (before class), in N707 – moving to the classroom around 9:45.
  • 1:45pm-2:30pm, in N707

As always, I’m happy to make individual arrangements to meet at other times – just send me an email.

Take care,
Prof. Reitz

Followup on Today’s Lecture (Tues 10/8)

Hi everyone,

In the homework from today, the final two problems (#15, 16) use an idea called “Proof by cases” (considering different possible situations within your proof).    To complete these two problems, read Page 96 (starting with “4.4 Cases” and ending at the end of the first proof, at the bottom of the page).  Bring your questions on Thursday!

Homework Week 7

Homework Week 7
Written work – Chapter 4 p.98 #1, 6, 15, 16,  Chapter 5 p.108 #1, 4, 20 (due next Thursday, 10/17 – NOTE that Tuesday 10/15 is a Monday schedule, so our class does not meet)
WeBWorK – none
OpenLab – none

KEEP IN MIND: For written work, the odd-numbered problems have complete solutions in the back of the book.  USE THIS RESOURCE.  You should try the problem on your own first, but when you are done read the solution carefully, and adjust your answer accordingly!  Let these examples be your guide on how to approach a proof.  

Office hours today (10/4): 12pm-1pm

Hi everyone,

Office hours today will be from 12pm-1pm (I will also be able to answer a quick question or two right after class).

Problems with our OpenLab site

Hi everyone,

A number of you have pointed out that our site is having problems – I’ve submitted a bug report, and will keep you posted.  Don’t worry – if it’s not resolved soon I’ll extend the deadline for OpenLab assignment #2.
