Computation and Logic

ForĀ CL Week 11, on Thursday there will be a lecture To Infinity and Beyond! about infinities and some (very) big numbers. On Friday, there will (time permitting) two short mini-lectures, one on "regular expressions" in real programming, and one the promised explanation of mediaeval syllogism mnemonics.

To avoid spoilers (and because these are not official course lectures), slides will not be posted in advance. If you require slides in advance, drop me a message, and I'll provide them.
