Announcements
Welcome!
All assignments, labs, and information will appear here by
week, in chronological order. I originally had them in
reverse order, but I changed my mind. I realized that if I want to
put a bunch of assignments up at a time (and encourage people to
work ahead), then reverse order makes that more confusing.
