(Web page: http://www.ma.utexas.edu/\~\ friedman) \vskip 1truecm {\bf Text and Syllabus:} {\it Basic Complex Analysis }, 2nd ed. Marsden, Hoffman; Freeman Syllabus: Most of Chapters I-IV, more if time permits. \vskip1cm {\bf Prerequisites:} M427K or M427L or consent of instructor. \vskip 1truecm {\bf Exams:} We will have exams on 9/29 (class 10; Tues.), 11/3 (class 20; Tues.), 12/3 (Class 28; Thurs.) (No ``Final exam"). All exam grades will be curved. * Exam grades will be scaled (if the unscaled average is $\leq 75$) to some value in the $75$ to $80$ range. {\sl MAKEUPS WILL BE GIVEN VERY RELUCTANTLY} \vskip 1cm {\bf Homework:} Homework problems will be assigned each Tuesday in class and will be due the next Tuesday. A serious effort should be made on these exercises. It will probably be difficult to completely learn the course material without working problems; also exam questions may bear some resemblance to homework exercises. Additionally, {\it all homework together will be counted as a grade equivalent to one exam grade.} (Homework assignments will be listed on my web page - see above.) \vskip 1cm {\bf Final Grades:} In computing a final grade, I will count the three tests and one total homework grade equally. (So there will be {\bf four} grades to average.) \end
