lecture notes posted

Hi Everyone!
Hope you are making good use of this rainy day!

I've posted the following sets of lecture notes on my webpage:

I hope that I can actually deliver these lectures; however, given their theoretical nature, they might fall by the wayside. Our time together should be as practical as possible. Mind you, theory is also important, as I'm sure you appreciate.

Tomorrow I'll make an attempt at the first lecture and see how far we get. In the meantime, have a look at the lecture notes and see what is the most useful (and not repetitive).
