A1 marks posted
The assignment 1 marks are finally available online on the Marks page. A recent web server upgrade broke some stuff, which took me until now to work around. Be sure to check that things are recorded correctly, as these marks are generated directly from my records. You may also want to change your password so that your grades remain private in case anyone knows your student number.

Lecture notes online
Notes have been posted for the lectures to date. Please note that these notes are not a replacement for the notes you make during class, but are intended to supplement them in case you don't get time to write something down correctly. Sometimes the notes I'll post are similar to what I cover in class; other times they may be less or more detailed. The "tutorials" are often integrated into the classes this term. The notes are available on the Lectures page.
