Math 214 Spring 2006: Homework

Problems appearing in boldface should be turned in. I encourage you to also turn in non-boldface problems, even though they won't get graded! The other problems are also good problems, useful for practicing your understanding of the material.

Explain your work: You should always explain your work, even if the book doesn't ask you to. How much detail should you include? Enough for a classmate who doesn't know how to do the problem to be able to follow and understand your work.
