(3-8-11) The Math 20B final exam will be held from 7:00pm to 10:00pm on Friday, March 18. You should sit for the exam in the room scheduled for the lecture in which you are enrolled. The locations for the exam are listed below. Please remember to bring a photo ID to the exam. You may also bring one page of handwritten notes, but no calculators or books are allowed.

Instructor	Lecture Time (MWF)	Location of Final Exam Fri. Mar. 18, 7:00pm-10:00pm
Neil Thapen	9:00am (Lecture A)	SOLIS 107
Laura Stevens	11:00am (Lecture B)	Sections B01, B02, B03, B04, B05 : CENTER 101 Sections B06, B07, B08: CENTER 115
Michael Volpato	4:00pm (Lecture C)	PCYNH 109

(2-11-11) Please note that the instructions on problem 15 from section 10.2 are a bit misleading. The series does indeed diverge, but you cannot prove divergence using Theorem 2 on page 568 since the terms of the sum do indeed tend to zero in the limit. Instead, we suggest to demonstrate divergence by some other means; the hint is to write out the terms of the sequence of partial sums.
(1-31-11) Please note that you may do the homework problems from 7.3 using complex exponentials (i.e. the methods in Supplement 3) instead of the reduction formulas in the textbook.
(1-20-11) Please note that you may not use a calculator on your midterm exam, but you may bring one sheet of handwritten notes to the exam (writing on both sides is okay).
(1-4-11) Please note the change to your HW from 5.5: problem 13 has been replaced by problem 12. This change has been made on the course HW page.
(1-1-11) Welcome to Math 20B!
