Note. For Parts 2 and 3, it will cause no confusion to consult a textbook for students who feel the need to do this. There are many good texts; among those I know, my favorite is A mathematical introduction to logic, by Herbert, B. Enderton.

Note about the Conference Hours of Moschovakis: If nobody shows up in the first 15 minutes, I will log off and go for coffee; so if you want to talk with me but cannot come in the first 15 minutes of a regular, scheduled Conference hour, send me email.
