Submitting your solutions

all homeworks and exams have to be done electronically and have to be submitted via Dropbox. You will be sent an invitation to join Dropbox soon (if you are not already a user). A little while later you will receive an email with an invitation to share a Dropbox folder with me.

From then on anytime you put something in this folder I will immediately have it in mine as well. So when you are ready to submit your homework simply drop the file into the folder.

If you have taken a course with me before and already have a shared folder you should delete it. If you are taking two courses with me make sure you know which folder is for which course.

I will accept ONLY pdf documents. You can use any word processor you like to create it as long as all the math is clearly readable. I highly recommend Latex and the easiest way to create a latex document is to use RMarkdown. For more information see Rmarkdown.
