The problems of the competitions are given in chronological order aspresented to the students. The solutions appear in subsequent chaptersaccording to subject matter. Appendices recall some background material andlist the names of students who did well. The University of TorontoUndergraduate Competition was founded to provide additional competition experience forundergraduates preparing for the Putnamcompetition, and is particularly useful for the freshman or sophomore undergraduate. Lecturers, instructors,and coaches for mathematics competitions will find this presentation useful. Many of the problems are of intermediatedifficulty and relate to the first two years of the undergraduatecurriculum. The problems presented may beparticularly useful for regular class assignments.Moreover, this text contains problems that lie outside the regular syllabus and may interest studentswho are eager to learn beyond the classroom. |
