One practice final, and the extra credit

Ok, I’ve looked over the summary I gave out a little bit after the midterm, and it did cover all of the material, so there’s no addition to the summary, you can just use the one you have.

Here is the final from last semester (and the key), try to assess how well this goes for you by Thursday if you can, so you can bring questions. I’ll plan to post a couple of other practice finals as well, but this can get you started.

And, lastly, here is an extra credit assignment (“Trees are easy to draw“) that you can hand in at the final if you choose to do it. It’s kind of neat, and it’s also a kind of a study aid, so I’d suggest doing it if you can. Can’t hurt. But it’s not required, and if you do part of it but not all of it, you can hand the part you did in as well.

Ok, let’s delay Thursday’s homework

Yeah, I think it probably would be best to have another class meeting at least before the homework I handed out is due. So. Let’s say Homework 4 is due on Thursday instead. We’ll keep moving forward in the class, but my plan now is: Homework 4 due Feb 23, Homework 5 out Feb 23, due Mar 3. I think it will be helpful to talk through this stuff some more in class, this is where it really started getting complicated and I want to make sure everyone’s more or less “on board.”

So: don’t stay up all night Wednesday night trying to get homework 4 done. Have a look at it before class, but you won’t need to hand it in on Thursday.
