I hope that your weekend went well. A few items:

-- The deadline for submitting course evaluations is tomorrow (Wednesday), August 14. I know everyone is busy but if you could take a few minutes to give me some feedback on how the course went I would greatly appreciate it! And thank you to those of you who have already done so!

-- I will be holding office hours this week from 4 to 6 PM on Tuesday (today; apologies for the late notice!) and Thursday, in PG101. (If it gets crowded, we may meet in the hall or in some other place, in the which case I will leave a note on the blackboard in the hall.) As always, if you would like to meet at another time please feel free to send me an e-mail to schedule it.

-- I apologise for getting so far behind with homework marking and the posting of practice problems. I will post practice problems both for last week and for the final by this evening, and aim to have the review sheet for the final put together by sometime tomorrow and the homework all marked by shortly after that.

-- The review sheet and accompanying announcement will indicate the exact final exam coverage. Roughly, it is cumulative; the specific problems are mostly ones we encountered in the second half of the course, but many still require details of the techniques (expansions in Legendre functions and Bessel functions, for example) which we studied in the first half of the course.

-- As you study, please remember that you MUST use the definition of the Fourier transform which we gave in class -- this means that you CANNOT use the one given in the book; and in particular you need to memorise results about Fourier transforms in the form they are given in the lecture notes, not in the form they are in the book. (I think there were a few of you who used formulas from the book on a previous homework assignment and wound up with the wrong answer; it might be worthwhile going back to check.)

Please let me know if you have any questions!
