Your task in this assignment is to critique the solutions to Assignment 2 given by three other students.  In class on March 2, you will receive a packet of three randomly selected solutions to Assignment 2.  (If you miss class on March 2, please see Prof. Felten to get a packet.)  Write a short essay critiquing these solutions.  If you can figure out how to improve them, either by adding elements of your own solution, by merging ideas from more than one of them, or by adding new twists of your own, you should describe your suggested improvements.
