PLEASE NOTE:
• for lecture 4 we will revisit some topics from lectures 1 & 2, but then go into a little bit
more detail.
• you will benefit from revising lectures 1& 2, before working through lecture 4
• information for Lecture 4 is from an *external resource, but all the necessary
information is provided in this detailed PDF version of lecture 4 ☺
