CS202/2007/OldAnnouncements

Note: You are looking at a static copy of the former PineWiki site, used for class notes by James Aspnes from 2003 to 2012. Many mathematical formulas are broken, and there are likely to be other bugs as well. These will most likely not be fixed. You may be able to find more up-to-date versions of some of these notes at http://www.cs.yale.edu/homes/aspnes/#classes.

2007-11-09: I made a foolish mistake in class today by trying to cover both non-strict and strict partial orders with a single definition. Notwithstanding anything that I said, you should think of a partial order (e.g. subset-of, ≤, divides, prefix-of) as as relation that is reflexive, antisymmetric, and transitive, and a strict partial order (e.g. proper-subset-of, <) as a relation that is irreflexive, antisymmetric, and transitive. Trying to mix these two concepts together just leads to pain, since we generally don't care how elements of a poset relate to themselves, and it's easier to just pick reflexivity or irreflexivity. I apologize for not being more careful about this. —Jim.
