136.130 Suggested Problems for Homework

The following is a list of basic problems from the textbook and should be regarded as an initial guide. It is up to each individual student to decide if he/she needs to occasionally modify the list (by including or excluding problems from the exercise sets in the textbook). In general, doing more problems improves your understanding of the material and your chances to get a higher mark. But, once you pass the level of proficiency too many tedious or computational problems could affect negatively your interest in the subject. Find your balance!
