Change of plans:
I'd like to snag the "Extra apps" day from the end, and just push everything back one class session.
That way, we can give cryptography its due.
So we'll finish with 7.2-3 today, and the corresponding homework will be pushed back by a day as well (due next Thursday).
We'll start 7.5 next time.
I'll push back homework 6.1, too: it's due next Tuesday. Sounds like there are some questions on it....
