April 18, 2007:
As you should realize, we're approaching exam season. In the next couple of days, I will make a post about office hours for next week and the week after . I will also be scheduling a review session, as promised; I have this pencilled in for April 25th, so now would be a good time to let me know about conflicts.

April 11, 2007:
I forgot to mention this in class, but last week was the last scheduled tutorial. So no tutorial tomorrow. We do, however, still have lecture (where we will be covering the last of the testable material and, if time permits, we'll talk about the exam.)

April 10, 2007:
For those of you who have perhaps not been religiously attending lectures, there are two points on A5 Q4 that you should be aware of:

• You only need to give the diagram of your FSA. You're welcome to give a written explanation as well, but it's not required.
• As has been mentioned a couple of times in class, if we ask you to produce a FSA without further detail, we do expect you to draw a deterministic FSA. That means that your solutions for Q4 should be deterministic.

March 30, 2007:
The complete A5 is now up.

March 29, 2007:
A partial version of A5 has been posted. A final version will be posted sometime tomorrow. (The remaining questions are on things we haven't discussed yet.)

March 25, 2007:

• As was discussed in class last week, I'm giving you one extra day for A4, so it is now due at 10:00am on Thursday, March 29 (or 10:00am on Friday March 30 if you plan to use your grace day). This does not change the deadline for A5.
• A (so far very brief) FAQ for A4 is now up here.
• Solutions for A3 and the midterm have been posted.
• A very short breakdown of the marking scheme for A3 is up here.

March 20, 2007:
The complete version of A4 is now up.

March 8, 2007:
The last question for A3 has been posted.

March 1, 2007:

• The first half of assignment 3 has been posted.
• A number of you have asked about the solution to question 3 on assignment 2. I'm delighted that you're curious, but the bad news is that (as much as I hate to admit this) we've found an error in my solution. We'll get a working proof up as soon as we find it.

February 27, 2007:

• I will hold some last minute office hours tomorrow from 2-4. For those of you who perhaps have questions but missed my scheduled hours today...
• You can find a summary of the topics covered in lecture and tutorial here.

February 24, 2007:

• Some more information regarding the midterm has been posted. Check details to make sure you know where you need to be and when you need to be there.
• Solutions for A1 have been posted. Partial solutions for A2 have also been posted; we should have a final version by tomorrow.
