Videos of lectures are available. As
they are on my office machine and I don't want robots to try to download them, the

Below are my lecture notes for the class so far. These are largely derived from
Mark Stamp's notes, but converted to HTML.
Math is being rendered using ASCIIMathml which works in Firefox or IE with a plug-in. It doesn't work so well in
Chrome or Safari. These notes should serve as a rough guide to what was covered on any given day.
Frequently, however, I say more in class than is in these notes.
Also, I tend to dynamically correct typos on the board
that might appear in these lecture notes. So caveat emptor.
