*A problem set is due at the start of the class if the due date is that of a class meeting. Otherwise, if there is no class on a due date, the problem set is due in my LGRT 1634 malibox at 2:30 p.m. that day.

Important: Be sure you strictly follow all the format rules for problem sets. And be sure you properly acknowledge any collaboration.

Files whose extension is .pdf are in the "portable document format"; read them with the Adobe Reader plug-in for your web browser. Files whose extension is .nb are Mathematica notebooks.  Just to read them, you may use MathReader,  (You can re-evaluate cells in notebooks only with Mathematica itself.)
