General Info
This is the webpage for Math 222 discussion sections 306 and 307 with
Professor Yang. This class is taught in a lecture/discussion
format. You will attend a large lecture with Professor Yang three times a
week, and then meet with me twice a week in small sections to go over
questions, homework problems, examples, and so on.
My goal is to help you learn the material as best as you possibly
can. Please never hesitate to ask questions during discussion or via
e-mail. I also love receiving feedback on teaching, organization,
materials, and other course logistics.
The general course page, maintained by Professor Yang, is located at
http://www.math.wisc.edu/~thyang/math.html.
Unforgivable Math Mistakes
In the vein of a certain popular book series, here's the current list
of Unforgivable Math Mistakes. These come from common mistakes Sara and I witness in discussion.
- In Calculus, (a + b)p ≠ ap +
bp
- a⁄b + c⁄d
≠ (a+c)⁄(b+d). Seriously.
- Logic: If some statement p implies some other statement
q, that's all it implies. In particular, it does not give us
the converse, that q implies p.
For example, if an infinite sum ∑ an converges, then
the limn->∞ an = 0. However, knowing
limn->∞ bn = 0 does NOT imply
∑ bn converges (example: ∑
1⁄n has limit 0, but certainly diverges)
In fact, it's really good that logic works this way. Otherwise, things
would be crazy. For instance, if p implying q forced
q to imply p, then if eating an ice cream cone made you
happy, then to be happy you'd have to be eating an ice cream
cone. Good for the dairy industry, but not that convenient.
