3320 HW#0, Due Thursday night, Jan 16. For all questions, mention “Newton” in your answer.
PLEASE READ THIS FIRST
Show/explain your work. We grade homework for clarity of explanation as much as for mere
correctness of final answers.
Use whatever resources help you learn (e.g. Griffiths or other texts, peers, office hours.) But,
what you turn in must be your work, reflecting your understanding. Copying is not
considered “collaboration”. Please reference all sources you use. Commercial homework sites
and bots are notorious for poor solutions, and they provide little (or negative) value to you.
Use your good judgment. Ask if you have questions about what is useful (and appropriate).
Scan and upload a single pdf. See Canvas for details. We use Gradescope in Canvas. You tell
Gradescope which of your pdf pages contain which problems. (Every week, do it with care.)
Remember that an (overworked, underpaid) grad student grades your homework. They do their
best, please help them by scanning carefully, writing neatly, organize your work so a human can
follow. Look at your pdf – if pages are hard to read, please rescan and try again. Thanks.
Firm deadline is Thurs night (i.e, before Friday@8 AM) After solutions post Fri@ 8AM, you
still have one day+ to rework any problems you made any mistakes on. See Canvas for details.
You can’t rework problems you did not make a genuine effort on for the Thursday deadline.
If you do any rework corrections, you have to rescan and resubmit the entire set, not just
the problems you fixed up.
The final (optional) rework deadline is Sat noon. I drop one HW for everyone automatically.
Email if circumstances beyond your control prevent you from doing a homework on time.
(If you are partially finished, much better to submit what you have done than nothing at all.)
Please reach out for assistance when you need it!
