Assignments

Unless mentioned otherwise, the problems below are from Conway's book.

Section 3.4 denotes chapter 3, section 4.
Exercise 4 in section 1.2 is refered to as E 1.2.4.
Statements from the text (theorems, examples, etc.) are refered to by their number only (e.g., 2.1.3 stands for Example 1.3 in Chapter 2).

Please write the solutions on separate pages (i.e., do not hand in a note-book).

Some of the problems might have the answer or a hint in the textbook. If you have to hand in such a problem, you are welcome to use the hint but have to still write a complete solution.
More difficult problems are marked by a *.
