Each week some problem sheet questions will be set. Doing the problem sheet questions is an essential part of the course. Even though these problem sheets are not part of the assessed coursework, in later assessed coursework and in the exam it will be assumed that you have done these questions. Moreover the content of the classes in subsequent weeks will be designed on the assumption that you have done the problem sheets. The homework is due on the following Monday (there is a pigeon hole marked MA10207 in 4W level 1 for you to hand in your solutions).

Lecture notes

A set of lecture notes is available in pdf format.
