Review Problem of Mid term of Matb 220 in 2013.

No need to hand in, and we will

discuss the problems in the review class at 8:30-10:00 on Friday, 22/03/2013.
Mid-term will be set on 7:00-9:00 p.m. on Friday, 22/03/2013, in Exhibition-Hall in
Library.
Mid term will be on chapter 1, 2 and 3 only. Of course, one can apply Laplace
transform to help some problem in ODE. Read the tutorial notes 1 for problems 1-21.
