number. Click on the link to see a summary of individual grade items (Exams 1 and 2,
Term Project, Quiz, Homework and Worksheet scores) as well as the Final Exam grade and course total points and grade. Note: Due to rounding, sums of the (integer) entries in some rows may not give the exact sum of Total Points showing. In adding, the field MT Sum was added in place of Exam 1 + Exam 2. In most cases, those entries are the same, but for students whose performance on the final exam was better than on the midterms, MT Sum is the mean between Exam 1 + Exam 2 and the percent scores on Final Exam Parts 1 and 2.
Change in Syllabus Note that Section 11.4 is being skipped. Moreover,
Sections 9.1 and 11.3 will not appear on the Final Exam!
Review Session for Final Exam Thursday, May 9, 1:00 − 2:30 PM, MSB 215.

Programs Available in MSB 203. The Math 116 folder contains serveral True BASIC programs, Mathematica notebooks and Maple worksheets for series of constants and Taylor series/polynomials, as well as integration by partial-fraction decomposition. The True BASIC program GraphRegBet2Curv graphs the region between two curves, and the Mathematica Notebook SurfRevol.nb plots surfaces of revolution. The Numerical Integration folder has a number of programs for numerical approximation of definite integrals by means of the midpoint, trapezoidal and Simpson rules. The Semilog folder has a Mathematica notebook that does semilog plotting of data. If you have any questions about using these that the computer lab monitor can't resolve, consult the instructor.
Alternatives to text derivations are available. The first one shows that the real number e arises as a limit: Equation (9) on p. 467, Section 7.4*.
