Assignments

This week there will be two practice assignments. They will have no effect on your course grade, but will help you become familiar with using PrairieLearn for homework and Canvas for labs. The credit ranges listed for these assignments are meant to demonstrate the process for future assignments, but again, these are not real deadlines as these assignments have no effect on your grade.
