Homework : Homework will be assigned each week and will be collected the following week on Thursday. There will be both Starred (*) and un-Starred problems. Both are to be done but only the Starred ones will be collected. Please write up the homework neatly and professionally. For example, if you have to make a graph, use a ruler or other straight-edge to form the axes. Work which doesn't look professional will not be graded. No late homework will be accepted.
