Math 24 Spring 2001:
| Final scores are posted now and accessible via Scorecheck (Push
button here or in the menu above and follow the instructions). Please check your hw and
exam scores and report any missing/incorrect scores to me. |
| Review Sunday 9-11am in BE 178 with Jose. Jose's review questions are here: page 1 and page 2. |
| Review questions for the final were handed out in class on Friday, but can also be found
here. Solutions were handed out in class, but in
case you missed it they are here: page1, page 2, page 3.
And here are CORRECTIONS (PAGE 1 & PAGE 2) to said solutions. |
| Frank has OH Monday from 1-3pm. |
| Last HW due is 5.3,5.4,5.5, due with the final. |
| Midterm practice questions can be found here. Answers to the practice problems
can be found here (page 1 and page 2).
|
| Get the password for eres from me.
|
| Here's a link to an applet to check
out r.e. numerical solutions of first order ODE's (e.g. Euler's method et al). It took me
a bit to figure out how it works, but once I got it, I fhad fun and found it quite useful.
Let me know if you find others on the web. The same site also has a better applet for direction
fields. |
| Math 24 specific web site with hw schedule, lecture schedule etc. can be found by
following the appropriate link on the left or clicking here. |
| Here's a link to an interesting
site about DE's courtesy of Mike Tsiang. http://www.sosmath.com/diffeq/diffeq.html |
| The next hw is due next Monday, April 23rd. The list of problems due can be found here (scroll down.) |
| I have also decided to have quizzes in class. See the quiz schedule as well as the date
of the midterm here (scroll down.) |
| The links to an applet for direction fields is here: http://www.dartmouth.edu/~rewn/dfDemo.html
and

Personally I found the second one a bit nicer, but the first is a bit bigger. Play around
with it and have some fun. Make sure you enter the functions correctly. In particluar
y(y-4) has to be written as y*(y-4) for this to work properly. |
| Oh, if you find a good resource about DE's on the web, you can e-mail me and I can put
it on the web. |
