8.4 due November 30

I don't quite understand Figure 8.4.3. It looks like the blue signal is the same on the two pictures but the red is different, but the caption says it should be the other way. I'm guessing the caption is wrong?

This section wasn't too bad because I had done the Discrete Fourier Series lab today. So it helped the lab make more sense. So I don't have anything to add.

7.2 due November 19

The thing I didn't understand about this section is why we need to use a distribution Q instead of just sampling uniformly (which I guess is a distribution...) when we are trying to do rejection sampling. I think it is because it speeds things up as it will have fewer rejections than a rectangle would. This section seems like we are learning more of what we just learned. I understand most of it, but I'm not sure I would recognize when I should use any of the techniques in this section.

4.2 due October 10

The hardest thing for me in this section is following all the details of actually implementing a search. The general "go here, then here, then here" makes sense, but keeping track of all the stacks and dictionaries and lists is what takes me the most time. I liked the cartoon example of what a depth first search would look like in real life. It both made me laugh and made me think.
