I don't remember what week I'm on...

It's been a month...

Assignment 2 wasn't too bad. We got marks taken off for some steps we didn't mention in questions 2,3 and 4. Curious to know how many marks we would have gotten for just writing the outlines of the proofs as we seemed to lose a large amount of marks for small errors.

Test 2 was ok...The cheat sheet really helped. The first two questions were fine and we've had lots of practice with them. However, the third question with the ceiling I felt to have little practice with and I was unaware that the prof had sent us an email with a proof of a similar question already solved. If I had known I would have written it down on my cheat sheet. It would help greatly if the prof made announcements on piazza instead as I check that as my major source for course info/announcements instead of my uoft email.

Assignment 3 so far has been rather stressful, it seems straightforward but all our proofs are rather short. My partner and I are having a hard time thinking of everything that should be written, especially in the comments. We went to the prof's office hours and he was a great help. I actually understand some questions more in the 5 min he worked with us than when I'd spent hours of it on my own. This of course leads to me worrying about the exam as I'd obviously have no one there to help me along. Here's hoping my cheat sheet can save my life....and for the exam I'll make sure to check my email more often for important announcements.
