  1. HW Polices.

    1. Type your HW (in word, latex, text file, etc.) and send to me by email.

    2. Do NOT share electronically. You must type your own solutions. You can discuss the problems with each other, but you may only discuss them. You may not write out solutions together.

    3. You MAY NOT copy word-for-word from any source, even the sourcesyou are allowed to consult. If you feel it is necessary, you should put the quotation in quotes and provide a reference/citation.

  2. (-3 points if left blank) List who you collaborated with on this assignment, "none" if none.

  3. (5 Points) Choose a topic that you plan to work on for your final project. Describe the topic in about 1-2 pages. This description should include what the topic is, why it is interesting, and what you plan to do. You should include ideas for programs that you could write, and/or algorithms that you plan to learn.

    You can look at the project webpage for some ideas I have had. I will update it when/if I have other ideas.
