During this past week, most of the my attention was concentrated on Assignment 2. Deciding whether Claim 1.2, and 1.3 was correct or incorrect was a long battle fought., I was constantly flipping between True and False all week. At the beginning, after working it out logically, I was very very sure that Claim 1.2 was False, although I did not know how to prove it on paper. However, as I was working through the problem to see if I can use math to solve it, it dawned on me that it was probably CORRECT. I started worked on that conclusion, but then I thought about it again, and I decided it had to be INCORRECT. This loop went back and forth many many times.
Looking at the Assignment 2 answers, I was relieved to know that my answer of Claim 1.2 being false, and 1.3 being true. However, because I focused so much on these two parts of the assignment, I did not really think the last 2.1, 2.2 through. The converse should have been false, but I had put as true. Thus is life. I need to make sure the “easier” questions are absolutely correct before I move on…
Today’s lecture was more or less a step by step approach to proving Omega. The steps were fairly structured, so it was easy to follow along. There were stark differences between the examples, which give a general standardized approach depending on the type of equation. Hopefully there will be a decently clear path on future questions.

Double note: My apologies, I forgot that I did not post my sLog for last week until today.
