The solutions to Homework 8 are available in PDF form (homework-8-sol.pdf). This will be the most useful format for most people. Unless you are one of the few people that are interested in the source files, you don’t need anything else.
The main TeX source file is homework-8-sol.tex. Please note that this is written in plain TeX, not in the more commonly used dialect called LaTeX, so it should be compiled with pdftex homework-8-sol.tex for PDF output. (The PDF images included in the document will only work with pdfTeX.) You will need to have the MetaPost drawings already compiled.
There are three maps in the PDF format that are included in the solutions, listed below.
The source files for these maps, which are in the SVG format, are listed below.
The main MetaPost source file, containing the source for fifteen drawings, is homework-8-sol.mp. If you have MetaPost (it’s commonly bundled with a TeX distribution), you can compile this by typing mpost homework-8-sol.mp at a command line.
If you don’t have MetaPost, or you simply don’t see a need to compile the MetaPost drawings yourself, you can download the compiled drawings listed below.
