Sec. 7, 6.1 due February 6

For section 6.1 I understood the algebra that the book went through, though it was unclear to me why they sometimes did what they did in pursuit of the proof.
Of everything we've studied thus far, the most important things are probably the proof methods: direct, by contrapositive, by contradiction.
On the exam I'm expecting similiar questions to those we've been seeing in he homework.  I don't know which way they'll go on difficulty.  Possibly easier as we will not have the assistance of any notes or T.A.'s.  I'm expecting a few things from truth tables, set theory and what not, but the meat of the exam should be proofs.
The main thing I need to work on for this exam is proofs involving sets.  I know the general idea behind it, I just need more practice.
