Brief overview of SI 262. These notes consist of the necessary information for the semester test and exam, as set out by D.Blaauw in 2019. The exam outline was the same as the one for the semester test (as confirmed in the exam prep lecture) so the last 2 topics aren't delved into. These notes are not too fleshy - concise, rather. But if you would prefer to read the textbook for your own peace of mind, go wild. I read the textbook and attended lectures - so my notes are a consolidation of the work. I got 75% for both the semester test and the exam.
