Preliminaries

  you'd like an appointment in that time frame, let me know.
* Review sessions Thursday 9am, 1:15pm, 8pm.
* I talked too much the past two classes, so I'm going to try to let you
  spend most of today on lab.

* Quiz Friday: Primarily Pairs and Pair Structures, Possbly Vectors.
* Exam 3 distributed (no changes since yesterday).
* Exam 3 prologue due Friday night.

### Student Plans for Exam 3

Here are some comments that students wrote on the prologue.

* Work on it each day.
* I plan on starting the more difficult problems first so I have time 
  to get any questions answered. 
* Talk to Sam in person when I have questions.
* I'm going to try to get a good "rough draft" of an answer for each 
  problem, and then make final copies for each answer individually.
* Don't fiddle with stuff after you've written it and it works.
