Homework
Homework will be collected at least on Thursdays; at times there will be some problems due on Tuesday, which Frank will grade.

Late homeworks are not accepted. It may not be possible to mark all problems assigned. A few of the problems will be corrected and graded each week. Nevertheless, for your own benefit, you will be required to hand in all the assigned problems. Your score will be based partially upon completing all assigned problems and partially upon the marks obtained in the problems which are marked by the grader. The two lowest homework scores will be dropped before computing your grade.

Special request from our grader: Please put your names in the upper right corner of each page.

Zeroth Homework: Read this www page and send Frank an email to the effect that you read and understood the course policies. Text-only email, please! (My spam filter does not deliver .html-formatted emails.) Ask questions if anything is unclear. Do put 171 in the subject header, please!
