The midterm exam will take place on Thurs. Mar. 13 from 7.00 to 8.15 p.m. at JR202. Calculators are not allowed (and probably useless) in this exam, but you can bring one page of notes (i.e., one side of a 11 x 8.5 in piece of paper). The exam will cover the material in parts I, II, and III of the text that's been presented in class (i.e., orthogonality, projectors, SVD, Gram-Schmidt, modified GS, QR, algorithm complexity, norms, conditioning and stability, and computer arithmetic). Here is a review sheet (.pdf) for the exam.
