Problems
- Autobiography
due on September 6. (This is not a class day!)
- Details.
Your first assignment is to send me by e-mail an mathematical
autobiography. You are to introduce your mathematical self to
me. Tell me about the courses you have taken, what your favorites
were, what you find hardest. Explain what your mathematical interests
are, and what you plan to do after graduation. Formulate at least
three questions about the history of mathematics (based on either
your personal experience or on your reading from B&G) that
you hope to answer in this course. Be creative with your responses,
and feel free to include more than just the simple answers to
the question prompts above. Send your response by Monday, September
6. The e-mail should be sent to deensl@ship.edu
with subject heading, "About <<Your name here>>."

of paper, submit a list of people for your group along with three
