Problem Sets
Problem Sets are due at the beginning of class, on paper / in-person! The one exception is the final two problem sets, which must be fully typeset and are therefore easier to submit on Moodle.
- Problem Set 1, due Wednesday 2/4 (.pdf, .tex)
- No typesetting required
- Problem Set 2, due Wednesday 2/11 (.pdf, .tex)
- No typesetting required
- Problem Set 3, due Wednesday 2/18 (.qmd) - Submit rendered .html on MOODLE!
- Problem Set 4, due Wednesday 2/25 (.pdf, .tex for whole assignment, .tex for only q9)
- 1 exercise in LaTeX required
- If you have never used LaTeX before, I would strongly suggest using the .tex template for only q9 and building up from there!
- Problem Set 5, due Wednesday 3/4 (.pdf, .tex)
- 2 exercises in LaTeX required
- Problem Set 6, due Monday 3/30 (.pdf, .tex)
- 3 exercises in LaTeX required
- Problem Set 7, due Monday 4/13 (submitted on Moodle) (.pdf, .tex)
- All exercises in LaTeX!
- Problem Set 8, due Wednesday 4/29 (submitted on Moodle) (.pdf, .tex)
- All exercises in LaTeX!
