Lectures, Quizzes, and Machine Problems¶
Lectures will be held MWF 13:00-13:50 in 3015 ECEB.
Every day, there will be a quiz on PrairieLearn. You can try the quiz as often as you like; your highest score will be retained. Quizzes submitted more than 24 hours after the start of class will be penalized five percentage points.
Machine problems are due on Gradescope by 12:59pm on the dates shown below. Machine problems may be submitted late with a penalty of only five percent. The two extra credit assignments (for MP4 and MP5) can be submitted by 12/15/2026. Each one is completely optional; submitting either will give you the chance to add up to 0.3 percentage points (one tenth of a regular MP) to your cumulative semester grade.
An approximate lecture schedule is shown below (subject to change).
