Van Vleck M--Th 15:30-17:10 and 18:30-20:10.
This course begins with a quick review of some techniques of single-variable
calculus (211), which is a prerequisite.
We next study some applications of single-variable calculus, in both
optimization and basic economics.
The main part of the course will consist of an introduction to calculus
in several variables, to Taylor approximation (aka `the theory of
calculators'), and then a brief introduction to differential equations.
Here is an approximate schedule (soon to be superseded by a more detailed
one.)
19 Jan -- 9 Feb Chapters 1-4
16 Feb -- 16 Mar Parts of Chapters 5 and 6
18 Mar -- 1 Apr Chapter 7.1--7.6
8 Apr -- 20 Apr Sections 9.1 -- 9.3 (other text)
22 Apr -- 6 May Sections 8.1 -- 8.4.
- In Term Exams:
- There will be two one hour in term exams;
The first will be Thursday, 11 February and the second will be
Tuesday, 13 April, both in class.
Calculators are allowed on all tests, and you may bring with you a single
8.5" by 11" sheet of paper on which you may write anything you please.
There will be no makeup tests, and you are excused from exams only for
well-documented emergencies.
- Homework:
- I will assign homework regularly,
and homework will be due on the following days.
February 2, 18, and 25, March 4, 18, and
25, April 1, 22, and 29.
Our grader will have your work marked by the following Tuesday.
Late homeworks will not be accepted.
