Weekly Exercises
This page provides links to the descriptions of the weekly exercises. Students will need to open these links and print out the information provided before the class. The exercise descriptions are provided in HTML (HyperText Markup Language) and sometimes PDF (Portable Document Format) format. The information content is identical in either format, but both are made available in the event that some students can not open PDF files. PDF files are most easily read using a program called Adobe Acrobat Reader. This program is free, and may be downloaded to your computer. Most web browsers can be configured to load PDF files directly into the reader.

For some of the weekly exercises some additional notes are provided which students may find beneficial.

Links to additional material that is relevant to the weekly exercises are listed below the table.
