Lecture Notes

Special software is required to use some of the files in this section: .py and .zip.

The lecture notes in this section were transcribed from the professors' handwritten notes by graduate student Pavitra Krishnaswamy. The handwritten notes can be found on the Lectures and Recitations page of the original 6.006 Web site.
