Reading
Read chapters 16 and 17 (to page 306) of Gallian's book (6th edition) three times:
- First time as if you were reading a novel - quickly and without too much attention to detail, just to learn what the main keywords and concepts and goals are.
- Second time like you were studying for an exam on the subject - slowly and not skipping anything, verifying every little detail.
- And then a third time, again at a quicker pace, to remind yourself of the bigger picture all those little details are there to paint.
Doing
Solve problems S20, 22, 24, S27, S31, 32, 38, S39, 40, S45, 49 in Chapter 16 of Gallian's book (6th edition) and problems 2, S4, 5 in Chapter 17 of the same book, but submit only the solutions of the problems marked with the letter "S".
