This course has lectures three times a week and a discussion section once a week. You also need to know about the textbook, how to get copies of announcements, handouts, etc.
Our lectures are MWF 9-9:50 in 101 Transportation Building and 1-1:50pm in 1404 Siebel. One-hour discussion sections meet on Mondays at 10, 11, 12, 2, and 3 and Tuesdays at 9, 10, 1, and 4. They are all in 1111 Siebel.
You are expected to attend lectures and discussion section. If you cannot be there, you must arrange to pick up any handouts or returned homeworks you may have missed, e.g. by coming to office hours.
Some handouts may be actually handed out in class. Others may be purely virtual. In both cases, they will available on the lectures web page.
Announcements, homework hints, etc will be posted on the class newsgroup. You must read the newsgroup regularly (at least once a day). Only particularly important announcements will be duplicated on the course home page. You are encouraged to use the newsgroup to initiate and participate in discussion related to the class. However, students should not post solutions or hints to homework problems.
The official course text is Discrete Mathematics and its Applications, Kenneth H. Rosen, 6th edition, McGraw-Hill, New York, 2007.
If you are on a tight budget, search (e.g. on Amazon) for used copies, copies of the international edition, and/or the 5th edition. The 5th edition has similar coverage of most topics but be aware that the section numbers don't match exactly. A copy of the text is on reserve in Grainger Library.
Readings from the textbook will be posted on the lectures web page.
