Note:
Access to document files (lecture notes, exams, homework)
is restricted to

or to user class with the appropriate password.
Homework problems are mostly from D.C. Lay,
"Linear Algebra and its Applications", 4th edition.
Homework will be assigned/posted every Tuesday (usually earlier)
and is due the following Tuesday by the end of the day (CDT).
Late homework will not be accepted.
The homework format is free-style.
The student solves the problems on paper, in her/his own handwriting,
then scans the pages (e.g. with a smartphone) into a single pdf file.
The pdf file is then uploaded to Gradescope.
(This takes a few steps, so please budget enough time for this.)
A submission guide can be found here.
Credit will be given mostly for valid, relevant, and comprehensible
solution steps. Just answers receive little credit.
There will be around 12 homework assignments during the semester.
Each assignment consists of roughly 5 problems.
Only 2 or 3 of these problems will be graded,
with the maximal score per homework set being 10, except ...
At the end of the semester,
one of the homework sets (the same for all students)
will be re-graded in full and counted like a quiz.
This quiz contributes 20% towards the course grade.
For the remaining homework sets, the sum of
the highest 10 scores contribute 15% towards the course grade.
The homework (but not the quiz) is graded by a grader.
Please direct any grading-related questions to me or the TA -- not the grader.
