The course Syllabus.

Timetable for lectures and assignments.

In an ideal world, I will post notes for my lectures 24 hours before giving the lecture.

This course will involve written assignments, and part of your grade will reflect your skill at conveying concepts using clear, grammatical, and precise writing. You may want to refer to the following resources early in the term, and again as the term progresses:
