Math 65 problem sets

---

Problems here are based off of gsypset, a custom documentclass I made. It uses a similar structure to hmcpset, but looks (IMHO) nicer, and adds an additional feauture: subproblems. By using the subproblems environment within a problem environment, gsypset allows you write the solution to each part of a large multi-part problem immediately under the problem statement for that part of the problem.

###How to use this repository:

• PDF files are intended to be printed directly, and are what you get by passing the options printing and blanks to gsypset before typseting the corresponding TeX file.
  • The consensed-format PDF is generated by also passing condensed to gsypset.
  • The hmcpset-format PDF is generated by also passing hmc to gsypset.
• Personalized PDF files can be generated by filling out \name and similar at the top of the document, passing printing to gsypset, then typesetting and printing the resulting document.
• TeX files have a similar structure to hmcpset, where problems are given in problem environments and solutions go in solution environments.

  • For most problems, the solution environment goes immediately after the problem environment: e.g.

    \begin{problem}[problem number]
      The problem statement
    \end{problem}
    \begin{solution}
      Your solution
    \end{solution}

  • For a problem with subproblems, the solution environment goes inside the subproblems environment immediately after the subproblem's problem statement (given with \subproblem): e.g.

    \begin{problem}[problem number]
      The general part of the problem statement
      \begin{subproblems}
        \subproblem A problem statement for the first subproblem
        \begin{solution}
          The solution to the first subproblem
        \end{solution}
        \subproblem Another subproblem
        \begin{solution}
          The solution to the second subproblem
        \end{solution}
      \end{subproblems}
    \end{problem}

    • A problem with subproblems should not be followed by a solution environment, although nothing should break too badly if it is.

  • problem environments can take an optional argument for the problem number; if not given they will be numbered sequentially.

  • The pset starts with four commands to define information about it:

    \name{Your Name}
    \class{Class name}{Optional section number}
    \assignment{Assignment name}
    \duedate{the due date}

    • The second set of curly brackets with the section number can be left off of \class

  • There's more stuff; hopefully it's clear by looking at the source; ask me if you have questions.
