Last Announcement. We have the following distribution of the overall grades:
A+ | A | A- | B+ | B | B- | C+ | C | C- | D+ | D | F |
7 | 13 | 6 | 11 | 4 | 7 | 5 | 2 | 2 | 2 | 0 | 0 |
The average GPA is 3.24. Thank you all for your hard work. Have a nice vacation.
There is a mistake in HW7. Problem 12 f) should belong to “intermediate”, not “basic”. And problem 16 should not be required. To remedy this, I will ask the grader to assign 30 pts to the first two problems. So:
HW7 has 3 problems only: 11 c), 12 d) 15 pts each; 12 f) 10 pts.
To make sure that no effort is wasted, anyone who gives a reasonably correct treatment of problem 16 will receive extra points.
Sorry for any inconvenience.
Feb. 24. Solution to midterm is available here. Some statistics of the midterm:
