Written Assignments

Written assignments are to be completed individually. They are handed in as PDFs through Gradescope. We expect you to use word processing or typesetting software for your assignments where appropriate, but hand-drawn diagrams are acceptable if they are done neatly. All deadlines are 11:59pm on the due date.
