MATHs 21a CHECKLIST MATERIAL, 8/13/2003 Maths 21a, Oliver Knill• Here is a checklist of material we covered in this course.• If you have worked with the material during the homework, there are not many things to memorize. Anexample might be the parameterization of the sphere or the definition of the curl.• You don’t need to know the formula for the curvature by heart but you should know what the curvaturemeans and what is the curvature of a circle of radius r.• The final exam will cover only material we mentioned in class. The handouts contain usually more materialthen what we covered in class.1.
