Lecture notes, generally in html format, are available in the fourth column via the links labeled “Presentation”. Real media copies of actual lectures are available in the fifth column via the links labeled “Real Media.”. Due to techincal problems in the video room, many of the last lectures were not recorded. By the way, unless you have an extremely fast Internet connection, it takes forever to download the lectures.
