This time we will consider problems using properties of polynomials.

For most students, just look at the exercises in poly-exercises.pdf
But if you already saw those last year, then also look at poly-putnam.pdf

We could also look at some new files in ../general/.

FILES:

poly-exercises.pdf
    Some problems from Sasha. Mostly seen last year, the last one is new.

poly-putnam.pdf
    Some Putnam problems on polynomials. Problems are on the first
    page, hints are on the second page, and solutions are after that.

ps3.pdf
    Third problem set from Sasha's Math-385 (extremal principle).


Summary: Casey, Matthew, and Felipe attended. Sasha also came near the
end.  We solved a majority of poly-exercises.  For next time, the
students requested calculus/analysis problems.
