The homework assignments will be posted on this web site after they have been distributed in class. Late assignments will be accepted only if prior arrangement has been made. Each assignment is worth 20 points, with the late penalty being 5 points off per day late. Homework is late if handed in after 4:00 pm on the date due. The homework is an important component of this course. You are encouraged to start your assignments early and to seek assistance from the instructors if you have questions. You may work on the assignments with your fellow students, but make sure that whatever you turn in is your own work.
