Welcome to Arithmancy 601
Before you enrol in this course, there are just a few things the Arithmancy team would like you to know.
- This course will involve some mathematical theory. Do not let this deter you, as we're always happy to assist with any questions you may have, whether they're about the general mathematical concepts, or Arithmancy-specific.
- We grade your assignments as quickly as we can but please do be patient.
- If you believe that there has been an error in the grading of your assignment, please send an owl to Professor Buchanan. We make mistakes sometimes, too. Just make sure to explain why you think there is an error, and include your assignment's ID number.
- If you have achieved 70% or higher in an assignment, you will not be able to retake it. Therefore, make sure you are happy with your work before submitting. If you are uncertain of something in the lesson, please ask for help before you complete the assignment.

Upon arrival, you find Professor Buchanan sitting upon his desk at the front of the room, clutching a stack of papers. There is a trolley in the middle of the room with a teapot and cups upon it. “Ah, come in. Grab yourselves a cup of tea if you like.” He hands out the papers in his han…
Professor Buchanan enters the classroom just in time for the bell, carrying a pile of marked midterm papers. “Alright, settle down, please. We’ve got a lot to cover today.” He puts the pile of papers down and then perches himself on the edge of the desk, facing the class. With a c…
