Term project
============

Homework 12 asks for your topic.

Deliverable include writeup, class presentation, code if you're programming.

Due dates
=========

During the semester, I've been lenient with due dates because this is a small class.  However, RPI's  last class day will be a firm due date for everything.  The registrar will want the grades early because there is no final exam.
