Grading policy:

Grade is "for participation", so A means "participated". Homework will be assigned and we will go over it in the problem session together. There will be no exams.

Homework:

The homework is essentially whatever exercises are in the notes up to where we get to in the lecture a day or two before the homework session. Since the homework is not collected or graded, we don't have to be too specific. I may highlight specific exercises to definitely try, but we can go through any of the ones in the book. Just look at the problems, and try to work through as many as you have time for. Even if you don't go through anything for a particular week, look through the problems and we will try to go through the solutions in the homework session, although we will definitely not have time to go through all of them.

Useful Links:

Overleaf is an online collaborative LaTeX editor, and really you should be typing everything in LaTeX if you are doing math.
