The results are now available in Devilry,

https://devilry.ifi.uio.no/

Those who did not pass, are given a new (and last) chance by Wednesday May 8,  2:30 p.m. Your solution sets will be available from Thursday (April 18) at the 7th floor of the Math. Building. Follow signs.

NOTE: "No feedback" in Devilry means that your solution set has not been approved (so far). Then you should pick up your solution set as described above.

Comment on Exercise 11.3.3 of SSS: In the case T=4, the function x^ suggested in the book is not differentiable at t=2. Try instead the function x(t)=b sin(πt/4) which is twice differentiable.

Welcome to MAT 2440, Spring 2012. In the differential equation part of the course we will use the book

Edwards & Penney: Elementary Differential Equations with boundary value problems, 2009 (sixth edition). Upper Saddle River, N.J. Pearson Prentice Hall.

Please, make sure that you get the right version.

The given "Detailed teaching plan" is tentative. There will almost certainly be adjustments and changes as the course proceeds.
