Dear all,
With this email, I just would like to tell you precisely what is the procedure for the graded exercises.
Every week, one exercise will be starred: this is the exercise you have to hand in, the week after it is published (this week, it is exercise 6 in Homework 1). If you use a computer for this, please print your solution (but handwriting on paper is of course also fine), and bring it either to the transparent mailbox in front of my office (INR 132) on Wednesday night at the latest, or in the classroom on Thursday morning, before 10 AM.
Please note that the purpose is not to hand in a perfect homework every week: the purpose is to ensure that you work regularly on the course material. We will therefore be flexible with the grading, and you are welcome to ask questions also during the week on the Ed Discussion forum.
Finally, there will be 12 exercises, each worth 2% of the final grade, and we will only consider the 10 best among 12.
All the best,
Olivier
PS: Some of you asked about non-measurable sets. Here is (attached) a nice example taken from the book "A second course in probability" from Ross and Peköz, Cambridge University Press, that is listed on the course webpage.
