FAQ

Why do you have so many websites for the course; can't we simply have one?

Unfortunately, there is no single web site or application that does everything we need for the course. A mixture of my course website, Canvas, and Piazza provide the necessary functionally. I have a separate website so that other instructors can easily reuse my public materials. Plus, I enjoy making my own websites. Canvas is needed to privately share information with you, like your grades. And Piazza offers a very nice interface for class Q & A.

Can I use a programmable calculator for the exams?

No, I do not allow anything but a simple scientific calculator. Spend $10 and get one for the exams.

Will we have to memorize equations for exams?

You will have to know the basic equations from the course. Elaborate equations will be provided. An equation sheet may also be allowed for exams.
