| - | Some of the problems, particularly in the first part of the semester, will require you to write proofs using techniques discussed in class. Let me recommend that you use a PENCIL when writing proofs, as it is much easier to erase than ink. As mentioned above, neatness counts. Please clearly compose your thoughts, no matter if you are writing proofs or programs. Also, programs must include concise comments - including your name - so that it is clear what you intent is. All software will be read by someone else in the future; sometimes code will need to be modified for one reason or another. It takes much longer if someone else has to figure out your intent when fixing code or adding additional function. | + | Some of the problems, particularly in the first part of the semester, will require you to write proofs using techniques discussed in class.
