Dear Dr. Szpankowski,
    Everything is going well at the graduate seminar.  Philippe has 
covered topics from chapters 1-3 of his book, and today (Friday) he is 
going to move on to chapters 4 and 6.
    I have been really busy writing solutions to the problem sets that 
Philippe has given to the students, and I think that they appreciate 
that.  I just wrote everything in LaTeX and Maple and put it onto the 
web for them:
http://www.math.purdue.edu/~mward/msri/
It is taking me quite a bit of time to write the solutions for students, 
but it is helping them to really learn the material.
    By the way, he is having me call him "Philippe" instead of "Dr. 
Flajolet", so perhaps I should start calling you "Wojtek" instead of 
"Dr. Szpankowski".  Is that OK with you?
    One question for you:  Why did Ga Hyun stay at home?  Andrew Lucas 
mentioned that she had a family emergency...  I hope that everything is OK.
    Have a safe trip--we'll see you at the beginning of next week.
Mark

Mark:

Let's do the following problems:

1. Example 8.9 -- enuemartion of (k,d) sequences

2. Exercise 8.14

If time allows, let's try

3. Ex. 9.12 and/or Example 10.6

Exercise 8.14 is in one of my paper that I can email.

Thanks ,Wojtek
