Winton) Date: Tue Jan 9 16:58:40 2007 Subject: [ece3283] first upgrade Message-ID: <45A42BCF.1090600@ece.msstate.edu> The hardcopy document which was handed out on Monday is obsolete. Throw it away, and discard the obsolete references to the ECE email. Download the updated version at http://www.ece.msstate.edu/~winton/classes/ece3283/ece3283g.doc. This emssg should also serve as a confirmation and check on your access and links with the operational environment for the ece3283 class.

Students who may have not taken heed of my warning about copying homework solutions from previous semesters (http://www.ece.msstate.edu/~winton/classes/ece3283/ece3283g.doc) will find out the hard way that there are flags and changes. And such will continue throughout the semester. -RW ------------------------ scs81@msstate.edu wrote: > Would you like us to recopy the homework questions on our engineering paper for > the HW assignments?

That's not the only exercise that is missing. For example exercise L-7 is still on the cutting table. -RW --------------------- Bryan M.

When you count from 1 to 5 and then start all over again how many states are in the count from 1 to 5? -RW mhd9@msstate.edu wrote: > Dr. Winton, > > On problem L-19, are logic gates required?
