This is a tentative syllabus: some topics may move around a bit, but the general content will not change.
Powerpoints for each lecture will be posted in advance. You may print them for class, but they are mainly for reference. Even though I won't divert from them, I won't be using them all the time (dark lecture rooms seem to be sleep inducing, especially after lunch :))
