Quizzes
In most weeks, the last 10 minutes of class one day
will be a quiz taken from the homework due since the previous quiz.
Normally, the quizzes will be on Fridays,
although the first quiz will be on January 16 Wednesday.
These will be like the homework.
In fact, often the homework will be harder;
the trickiest sort of homework question won't appear on quizzes or exams.
After I return a quiz, I'll post my solutions here;
see the downloading help if you have trouble.
(If you took a Quiz early or late,
then you may have taken the one from the other section.)
