Hudson's Online Help - MAA 3200- Fall 2010: Also check out the Exam Page, which has old exams and (eventually) keys to your exams, and True-False practice. I'll add more links to this page during the semester if enough people express interest, so check back here from time to time. Requests are welcome!

explanation and online drills, in three parts.
Quantifiers; TF practice with the

statements about sets. Practice proving these.

problems [2003].
There are links to notes on N, Z, Q and R [and to related
exercises] on the HW page.
How to use the Web Site: Most students get used to it pretty fast. You should read the Policy page at the beginning of the term, print out and read the Syllabus, and scan the rest (exam page, project page, HW page, etc). You can print the HW page, also known as the Schedule page, if you want, but it is subject to change. During the term you will mainly use the Exam page and the HW page. That is where I will post any news about the course, such as a change in the HW lists, etc. Also, I've made a list of common abbreviations; there's a link to that on my home page.
Remember - you will learn the most from doing homework exercises, even if they seem hard at first. Nothing on this page, or the exam page, should be considered a substitute for that work.
