Examples from last semseter

Because the textbook changed between the Spring and Fall 2013 semesters, the middle exams will be somewhat different. However, here are some problems from last year’s exam that would be worth reviewing. These problems aren’t exact matches to what we are doing this year, but many of them are close.

• Middle exam: All problems except for the second Problem 3
