CS174Fall 2013Lecture Notes

Videos of lectures are available. As they are on my office machine and I don't want robots to try to download them, the directory is password protected. The login is guest and the password is guest.

Below are my lecture notes for the class so far. They 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.
