Text: J. W. Brown and R. V. Churchill, Complex Variables and Applications, 6th edition. I may ask you to read some sections on your own; and I may introduce some material that is not in the text.

Homework: The homework assignments will be given at the end of each lecture. Due to the large number of students per TA, only selected problems will be formally graded. However, the TA will informally read everything you submit. All homework will be due on the assigned due date (normally a Thursday). No late homework will be accepted.

Quizzes: Quizzes will be given every Thursday at the beginning of the discussion session. They cover the homework material due to that day. The quiz with the lowest score of the quarter will be dropped before the final grade is computed.

Exams: There will be one midterm exam (date to be announced) and a comprehensive final exam (Wednesday, December 8, 10:30 am -- 12:30pm). All exams are closed notes and books. Picture ID with signature is required and must be presented upon request. This is your responsibility to keep the tests and quizzes until the end of the quarter.

Grading: The final grade of this course will be computed as a weighted grade-point average of the following: Homeworks - 15%, Quizzes - 10%, Midterm exam - 30%, Final exam - 45%. As usual A=4.0, B=3.0 etc.; the modifiers + and -- are worth ±0.3 points from the regular letter grade. It is necessary to pass the finalexam (D- or better) in order to pass the class.

Partial Credit: Partial credit for incomplete answers will only be given if you did complete a substantial fraction which demonstrates your understanding of the material. However, on all quizzes and exams you have the give up option: if you clearly write the words ``Give Up'' underneath your answer, it will not be read (whether wrong or right) and you will receive 20% of the maximum score by default.

Late exams, incompletes, etc.: I never give `early' exams, and hardly ever give `late' exams. If I do allow you to take a late exam, you can be sure that it will be different from - and harder than - the one given to the rest of the class. If you have a well-documented excuse showing that for reasons beyond your control it was absolutely impossible for you to take an exam, it will be rescheduled at a later date and a commensurate penalty will be assessed.
