Are future homework going to be around the same length as this one? 
I feel that the homework is a bit too long with too many sub-problems.

Agreed; maybe it's because my math skills are a bit rusty, but this has taken (and continues to take) me quite a bit of time. Not sure if I'm an outlier or not...

Same here. It has taken too much time for me too, and still have quiet a bit to do. I hope we are not outliers!

hi guys,

most likely future homework will have a larger dynamic range in terms of difficulty (a few harder and a few easier problems) and likely be easier to do. 

thanks for the feedback,

alex
