Acknowledgements

This course has been designed to meet the requirements of the Prime Minister's Research Fellowship for teaching work completion. I am grateful for the assistance provided by my supervisor, Prof. Suyash P. Awate (CSE IIT Bombay) in acquiring the materials necessary for online teaching. I am also thankful to Swami Punyeshwarananda, the Head of the Computer Science Department at RKMVERI, for placing trust in me to take on the responsibility of teaching this course. In conclusion, my heartfelt gratitude goes to my Department, CMInDS, encompassing the dedicated faculty (Prof. Manjunath), supportive staff (Taha and Suraj sir), and cherished friends. Their unwavering support has been instrumental in making all these achievements possible. Contents of this webpage is created by Jimut Bahan Pal. The style is borrowed from here.
