CDS 112 Schedule Course text

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