Homework for Introduction to Abstract Algebra
M366: fall 2007

Homework:
Homework is due every Friday at the beginning of class. Late homework is only worth 50% of the total score. Homework must be neat, legible, and stapled in order to receive credit. I encourage you to brainstorm the problems in groups and write up your solutions independently. Starred problems may be a little harder. Remember to explain all your work.
Solutions are available for some, but not all, of the problems.
Flashcards and quizzes are found on Gallian's webpage: Gallian's webpage
