  • LaTeX: All handouts and at least one problem per problem set should be typeset in LaTeX.
    See the LaTeX homepage for installation sources and documentation.
    You can copy the TeX file of the presentation example to get started with writing your first own document.

    Grading:
    Weekly homework is the same as for general 18.100BC with the exception that clarity of exposition will enter the grading, and starting with Problem Set 3 (due 10/1) at least one problem has to be submitted in LaTeX.
    The final grade for 18.100C will be based on homework (20%), presentations in class (15%), two midterms (each 15%), and a final (35%). However, regular attendance and participation in the C session Wed 1-2 is a necessary condition to pass this course.
