Here is a link to the final exam
The inclass midterm exam will be given on Friday, November 8. The exam will cover the material in the first five homework assignments. It will be closed book but you may bring one 8 by 11 formula sheet with whatever information you want on it. You may use both sides of the sheet. You may not use a calculator. It is enough to express any numerical answer as a formula which can easily be evaluated using a calculator.
Home work assignments can be submitted on canvas or brought to class.
