| CDS 112 | Schedule | Course text |
This page contains the tentative course schedule for CDS 112. Lecture notes will be posted some time before class (usually on the same day). Note that lecture topics beyond a few weeks in advance are a guesstimate based on previous year's lectures at the comparable date. However, they are subject to change.
