Reading assignments are in red. Readings may be done before or after class, whichever works best for you.
Practice problems are in purple. Practice problems are best done after the associated lecture. Practice problems marked iwith an asterisk (*) are especially important; if you are short on time you should concentrate on those ones. (If an asterisk precedes a range or practice problems, all of them are important.)
