Problematic problems.

The following problems have been reported. The code identifies the particular version of the question. This code appears on the page that is displayed after submitting an answer.

To report a problem, use the error reporting form.

General issues.

  • Questions with check boxes generally require that you select all correct answers in order to have the question marked correct.
  • There is no limit on the number of times that you may submit answers to your homework. All submissions for credit must occur by the due date. Once you receive credit for a question, you will never lose credit for that question.
  • It appears that some of the problems do not display correctly in Mozilla Firefox running on a Macintosh. The most commonly reported symptom is that subtraction signs are missing. If you wish you may try to correct this by installing additional fonts. Otherwise, students with a Macintosh should print out their homework from a Windows machine. (Mathskeller is a convenient place to do this.) Submitting homework problems on a Macintosh should not present any difficulty.

Homework C7

  • Questions 7 and 8 (all versions). The sums in the problems should extend from 1 to n, rather than from 0 to n. This typographical error was discovered shortly before the problems were due and will not be corrected.

Homework A5

  • Questions 3, 5 and 9. The buttons across the top of the page do not always stay green after you submit a correct answer. However, once you submit a correct answer to these, or any, questions, you never lose credit. To verify that you have not lost credit, you can check the questions that are marked correct in the table on the "Submit button page" or by clicking on the "Homework scores" button on the main page.

Homework A4

  • Question 14. All versions. The question should ask "...at which x-coordinates is the function f(x) continuous, left-continuous or right-continuous."
