Schedule Notes

AO refers to the Ammann and Offutt text.

The schedule is approximate, and topics and/or dates may change slightly.

I expect students to have completed the reading prior to class on the date listed. Quizzes may occasionally take advantage of this expectation.

Homework assignments are due on the date listed. Quizzes are posted, with solutions, following the class in which the quiz is given.
