  Answers To Selected Problems

Please sent me an e-mail (mavable@mtu.edu) of any corrections. These corrections will be listed in an errata file and will be incorporated into the online book at least once a year.

Please help me with my effort to provide free online book by sending me problems of practical nature and of applications that are currently not in the book. This will help me update the book periodically. Hand written scanned problems and solutions are fine, though a typed electronic copy will be greatly appreciated. I will acknowledge your contribution when I post the problems online.

Errata

The corrections listed in the errata file have been incorporated in the online book. The errata file is for those visitors who printed earlier version and may prefer to either print just the corrected pages or make hand corrections rather than print the entire book all over again.
