Lecture schedule

The lecturing schedule with slides are given below. The slides will be updated as the course progresses.

Note that the slides may not be a complete representation of the material covered in the lectures. We may supply extra information not on the slides; verbally, on the blackboard, by coding live, et cetera. This extra material is examinable.

NOTE: The slides in this table with “(OLD)” are last years’ slides; they will be updated as we go.
