    A reminder that HW#4 is due tomorrow (Wed Oct 24). You can find the full list of exercises below (you can also find HW assignments posted at https://openlab.citytech.cuny.edu/mat2440-ganguli-fall2018/assignments/)

    Also, we will have a quiz at the end of class tomorrow. The quiz will be similar to HW exercises from Sec 1.7 and Sec 2.1.

    HW#4 (due Wed Oct 24):

    Sec 1.7: Intro to Proofs (p91):
    #1-3 (study Examples 1&2 on p83 carefully; use them as models for your proofs)
    #9-11
    #17, 18 (instead of giving a proof by contraposition and a proof by contradiction, it will suffice to give a proof by contraposition or a proof by contradiction, i.e., one or the other is fine (but you can interpret this as an inclusive-or, and write out both types of proofs!))

    (For the odd-numbered exercises: try to write out a proof on your own before you look at the solutions; then study the solution and use it to edit your proof, if necessary. I will primarily grade the even-numbered exercises, but I will also check your solutions to the odd-numbered exercises; your proofs should be in your own words, i.e., not exactly the same as the textbook solutions!)

    Sec 2.1:Sets (p125-126):
    #2(a)(b), 6, 7(a)-(d), 8(a)-(d), 12, 14, 19, 20, 21(a)(b), 26, 27, 33, 34, 35, 37
    (for #35 & #37, give a brief explanation or draw a diagram to justify your answers)

    Sec 2.2: Set Operations (p136):
    3, 4, 14, 15(b), 16(a)(b), 23
