Lab Hand-In

Yes, there is a hand in assignments due for last week's lab.  The assignment should be turned in to the mailboxes outside HA103.  Make sure you put your assignment in the right box (by Lab Assistants) or you will not get credit for the assignment.

OWL question - Roots

There have been a few people asking about the "Roots" question in OWL and I think the confusion may be coming from the way it's worded.  It sounds as if you will get a very large or very small number as an answer that will require scientific notation to answer, but the 3-4 times I've tried the question, my correct answer has always been easily expressed without scientific notation, answers like "4.293" and "0.271".

Simplest help = just evaluate the mathematical expression given in the problem and type in the answer you get.
