What's next

The final will be Monday, 12/14, 10.30am - 12.30 pm. Update: Here is the study guide for the final. Section 16.9 has been removed, and the earlier chapters have been updated. Another update: Quiz 7 is posted below, with corrected problems and solutions. Yet another update: You are allowed to bring one page (front and back side) of your own, hand-written notes.

There is no homework for this week, but please do enough of the problems for chapter 16.7-8 from the study guide to become familiar with using Stokes' theorem.

SAGE

I suggest you make an account at the SAGE notebook server. Here are the examples we did in class:

New examples: Vector fields. Line Integrals.

Gradient fields and contour maps.

Examples for non-continuous functions (you can use these as a starting point whenever you want to graph a function of two variables): Surface graphs

Surfaces: elliptic paraboloid, ellipsoid, hyperbolic paraboloid, hyperboloid and cone (change the value of k).

Space curves: Spirals and the Twisted Cubic.

There are also skew lines. If you make an account, you can easily change these examples to look at other surfaces or space curves.
