As the semester progresses, this will be a growing list of resources.
- Notes on homework 14
- Which sections from the book have we covered? (This list supersedes the chart below.)
- You can find some useful information about finite fields in these notes by Cheryl Praeger.
- Models of finite fields
- Notes on the second Maple lab.
- Amnesty program
- Office hours are Wednesday 9:30-10:30 AM and Thursday 2:00-3:00 PM.
- The official home page for the textook is http://www.prenhall.com/washington. You can download various programs there.
- Here, very roughly, is how what we've done interacts with the textbook:
Week |
Sections |
1 |
2.1, 2.4, 3.1.1, 3.3 |
2 |
3.1.3 |
3 |
3.3.1, 3.3.2 |
4 |
2.2, 2.7, 3.8 |
5 |
3.4, 3.5, 3.6 |
6 |
6.1, 6.7 |
7 |

Two caveats are in order here:
- I am not completely sure that the division of topics follows the division of weeks.
- A bit of the material isn't in the book at all.
