Rhea Section for MA 375 Professor Walther, Spring 2009

If you create a page that belong to this course, please write

[[Category:MA375Spring2009Walther]]

at the top of the page.

Firefox version 2 is not good enough to see several things on Rhea pages. Use version 3 or higher.

To start, click the "Help" button above and read what's there.
To edit pages, first log in (with your purdue account to create pages. Then click "edit" (under "Page" above) and remember to click "Save Page" after you are done editting.).
To get a quick idea what works how, click "edit" on this page to see how to do the things visible on this page.
Note that the "edit" mode has a spell-checking feature: look for red-underlined stuff.

To create a new page named "B" from a page A, go to edit page A and insert the text [[B]]. (Note that "B" is like a web address for a webpage. Each page also has a name, but you can call the link anything (like fancy_title) by typing [[B|fancy_title]] rather than just B. After saving, find the new red link on page A that appeared. When you click it, you'll note you are now on page B (which of course is empty at this point).
NOTE: if the "new" link comes out blue, instead of red, you chose a title of an existing page and did not create a new one. The blue link gets you simply to the already existing one. Use distinctive names for your new creations!
If you place "Category:MA375Spring2009Walther" enclosed by square brackets on top of a new page it will be parsed by the system as belonging to this course. It can then be searched (for) in a meaningful way.

You can look at other Rhea pages by clicking "main page" and then "course pages". Especially the ECE pages will get you an idea where one can take Rhea...
Do you want to display pages in other pages?

Area to post questions, set up study groups, etc.
