Posted Sunday 28 November 2010
Due on paper to me or to the CMPSCI office, Friday 10 December
2010, 4:00 p.m.
There are fourteen questions for 100 total points plus 20 extra credit.
All are from
the textbook,
Mathematical Foundation for Computer Science,
from Volume II. Note that the book has
both Exercises and Problems -- make sure you are doing a Problem and not the
Exercise with the same number. The number in parentheses following each problem
is its individual point value.
Students are responsible for understanding and following
the academic honesty
policies indicated on this page.
