    Homework: Homework will be due most weeks on Fridays at 11:59 PM, except on weeks in which we have a midterm it will be due on the following Monday at 11:59 PM. No late homework will be accepted, but your lowest homework score will be dropped when computing your final grade. On each assignment, a few problems will be graded for correctness, while the others will be graded simply for completion. We will use Gradescope for turning in homework. When registering for gradescope, please register using your "@ucsd.edu" email address and use Entry Code EJZEB2.

    Homework 1 (Due Friday April 12): Chapter 5 problems 2, 4, 6, 8, 9, 17, 26
    Homework 2 (Due Friday April 19): Chapter 5 problems 11, 15, 22 and Chapter 6 problems 1, 2, 3, 4
    Homework 3 (Due Monday April 29): Chapter 6 problems 5, 6, 7, 8, 10
    Homework 4 (Due Friday May 3): Chapter 6 problems 9, 11, 12, 13(abd), 15, 17, 19
    Homework 5 (Due Friday May 10): TBA
    Homework 6 (Due Friday May 17): TBA
    Homework 7 (Due Wednesday May 29): TBA
    Homework 8 (Due Friday May 31): TBA
    Homework 9 (Due Friday June 7): TBA

    Exams: All exams will be in-person. If you miss a midterm no makeup exam will be given. Instead your final exam will count towards 60% of your final grade.
    Grading: Your final grade will be the maximum of the following two weighted averages:
    Special Accommodations: Students requiring accommodations should provide an OSD letter of certification and OSD accommodation recommendation as soon as possible.
