How to read the about table: The contents of class in the morning 10:00-12:00 or Thursday afternoon 1:30-3:30 are either Matlab, or Math(ematica), or C/C++, or Test. If there is a pair of braces {...}, it means that the afternoon 2:00-5:00 is a lab, {c} for C lab, {c++} for C++ lab, and {math} Mathematica lab, {mat} for Matlab lab, {unix} for a Unix training session.
