Hudson's Online Help: Also be sure to check out the Exam Page, which has old quizzes, keys to your quizzes and True-False practice. If some exercise numbers seem wrong, they may be left over from the 6th Ed of our book - please check these changes.

  1. Logic and Proofs for Beginners (Text + Drills : Parts 1,2,3)

  2. My Favorite Matrices (optional of course - read any time after Ch 1)

  3.   Hints for HW 2, + related proofs, and Hints for HW 3,4,5 (also, see the Student Study Guide). More on HW4.

  4.   Lecture Notes #5 (second half of my MATLAB lecture in GL 263, from 1/24/03)

  14.  How the topics are used - in later chapters, or in applications. A brief two page chart.

How to use the Web Site: Most students get used to it pretty fast. You should read the Policy page at the beginning of the term, print out and read the Syllabus, and scan the rest (exam page, project page, HW page, etc). You can print the HW page, if you want, but it is subject to change. During the term you will mainly use the Exam Page and the HW/Schedule pages. That is where I will post any news about the course, such as a change in the HW lists, etc (I will also generally announce this info in class).

Some of the less critical web pages, such as tutorials, have been carried over from previous semesters. My policies on projects and MATLAB may have changed since then. So, you may see a few things that seem irrelevant or even confusing - if so, please email me and I'll update them.
