This section provides course materials and a discussion forum for the course Principles of Programming Languages that I am giving at Oxford in Michaelmas Term 2012. See the category page for a list of all pages related to the course.

Some pages contain course material, and I have protected these from editing, so that everyone can see the material as I presented it. But each protected page has an associated discussion page, and you are welcome to add comments there, or to make additions to any of the other pages. To make edits, you will need to create an account for yourself.
