Notes for this weekplan:

You will notice quite a lot of reading material this week, but most of it is marked 'cursory' or 'optional'. Do not let this scare you! The focus in the MSDO fagpakke is highly balanced towards the operational aspect: using stuff rather than digging into all the gory and academic details.

Therefore - skim/speed read the material (even the mandatory stuff) to get an overview and a 'coarse roadmap in your mind' so you later know where to get more detailed information if you encounter issues when solving exercises. And use my slides a primary overview of the material.
