- Material from each lecture will appear by the end of that day. Refresh/reload the page if you don't see an expected update.
- All homework exercises (see Canvas) refer to these notes. Solutions to all exercises will appear in Canvas after the submission deadline.
- Please report typos or anything that's unclear so the notes can be improved.
- The html version is experimentally converted from the pdf. If something looks wacky, compare with the pdf and report it.
- If you want to read ahead, here is the full version of the notes from last year (pdf). This year's will not differ significantly, but beware possible changes in exercise-numbering!
If you want to start typesetting mathematics, here is a short guide. If you're a veteran, feel free to muck with the source code for the notes.
The full syllabus, exercise solutions, class policies, assessment dates and gradebook are within Canvas for enrolled students only.
