Notes about lecture slides

A draft of the lecture slides is made available the evening before class. The final version of the lecture slides is made available after class and replaces the draft. Use of the draft is at your own risk!

The "official" version of the lecture slides will be in OpenDocument (.odp) format. For your convenience, automatic translations to PDF and Powerpoint will be done, but it is your responsibility to check them for accuracy.

You are expected to have read the indicated sections of the textbook before the corresponding lecture.

Readings marked as mandatory contain required material for the course; those marked before class must be read before the date of the corresponding lecture.
