A calendar of lecture topics, textbook readings, and exam dates follows. Note that it is subject to change!
Sometime after each lecture topic is complete, the slides will be linked from the topic in the table below. For lectures not yet linked, consult the course packet, or view the slides of previous quarters. The slides are in Adobe Acrobat format (help viewing the slides).
The homework due dates (to be added later) refer to the final part of each project. Often there will be parts due on earlier dates.
The last column indicates the chapters/sections of the required textbook that are relevant to the lecture material. Please read the textbook before attending class.
Note on slide numbers: these numbers match the current (updated) versions of the slides, which may be different from those in the course packet.
Subject to change. Last revised 3/7/2001. Links to lecture slides initially point to slides from previous quarters. They will be updated to point to slides from this quarter after the corresponding lecture has been presented.
