On the midterm, I'm going to try my hardest to be very specific about what constitutes a complete answer, even moreso since people have been asking me about homework grading.
This is what the homework grader has to say about it:
"Here is what I like to see.
1. If a theorem is used, it should be cited (especially with
convergent/divergent series problems since there are so many tests).
2. Non-trivial integrations (especially ones by parts) can't be omitted.
For example, f(x) = ln(x)/x^2 from the last hw. They can't just write
Integral(f(x)) = -ln(x)/x - 1/x with no intermediate steps.
3. In general, when in doubt, show the work.
Those are the main things for me. Stating theorems and showing work."
