Posted Friday 11 February 2011

Due on paper in lecture, Tuesday 22 February 2011 (Monday schedule).

There are nine questions for 60 total points plus 5 extra credit. All are from the textbook, Mathematical Foundation for Computer Science. 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.
