Schedule

This class meets every Tuesday and Thursday from 9:25 to 10:40 PM, except on University holidays or if I cancel class. All dates in the following schedule are tentative, except those fixed by the University; if some topic listed here as taking one lecture in fact takes two lectures to cover adequately, or vice versa, the schedule will shift.

All reading assignments below are from the Angel textbook unless stated otherwise. I expect you to have read the specified chapters in the textbook before the lecture that deals with that topic; this way I can concentrate my time on answering questions and clarifying subtle or difficult points in the textbook, rather than on reading to you, which will bore both of us. Please read ahead!
