   Spring 2013, MATH 31011: Discrete Mathematics The purpose of homework assignments is to prepare you for exams, as exam problems will require the same skills. Moreover, each exam will contain some homework problems, either in their original or a slightly modified form. All problems listed below are from the exercises in the textbook. Odd-numbered problems are mainly assigned, so that you can compare your answers to those provided in the book. An even problem is only assigned when it is explicitly mentioned. Current homework assignments are highlighted. If you have difficulties with the homework, see me during my office hours or prepare your questions for homework discussion. I would really like this to be a discussion and I will assume that you spent some time working on the problems you have questions about. Homework assignments may somewhat change. All changes will be announced in class and posted on this website. Select problems (mainly even-numbered exercises) are to be done in blue books, which will be collected for grading at the beginning of class on the due date. These assignments are indicated below by “BB”. The worth of each problem is provisionally set to 5 points. Your total homework score, which is included in your class grade, will be the percent of homework points you will have achieved.  |
