  • Final Exam: Wednesday, December 16, from 7 to 10 pm, in Biological Sciences Building, Room 130.
  • To share your lab work outside the lab, mail it as an attachment to yourself and to your partner. That way you can work on it on any machine that has Maple from either of your acpub accounts. Each time you work on it, be sure to mail it again to your partner. Needless to say, you should avoid working on both copies at the same time.
  • To submit your lab work, first be sure both names are in the file, near the top, where they are easily found. Then mail the final version of your file to your instructor, as well as to your partner (copy yourself, if you wish). Your instructor will use a Reply To All to send it back, so the comments and grades will go to both partners. In particular, if both your Math 111 address and your acpub address are on the submitted file, the graded file will go both places.
  • If your mailer “translates” a Maple attachment into a jumble of text characters, copy this entire text into a text processor and save it with a name that ends with .mws to make it a Maple work sheet. Delete everything that precedes the Maple version number, and save again. Then open it with Maple.
  • To change your password, open the command tool on your screen, and enter the command yppasswd. You will be prompted to enter your current password and the new one you want to change to. Since the initial passwords are hard to remember, it is recommended that you change to something you can easily remember -- but that is not obvious to anyone else.
  • To see bigger type in Netscape, use Options/General preferences/Fonts. Change the proportional font to Helvetica (Adobe), and then reset the size as you wish.
  • Suggestion: When you are logged in at the lab, point Netscape to this page,
    http://www.math.duke.edu/faculty/smith/courses/m111s98/
    and bookmark it for easy access from your Math 111 account. Similarly, you might want to bookmark both this page and the lab home page,
    http://www.math.duke.edu/modules/materials/engin/
    in the browser you use from your acpub account.
