Please remove this change --- I think it's irrelevant when we just want to define a distribution.
(This is a judgement call on the trade-off between constency and simplicity.)

Many thanks @HumphreyYang , the lecture is clearer now. Just one small change above. |
|
Many thanks for your review @jstac. I have reverted this change :) |

Hi @mmcky, there seems to be a cache error similar to what we had before: Could you please have a look to see if the cache needs to be cleaned? Many thanks in advance. |
I think that's fine as is @HumphreyYang . Many thanks. @mmcky please merge when ready. |
Hi @jstac,
This PR addresses our discussions in #105 about the consistent use of math notations.
I have put$\psi$ in the context of $t$ across the lecture since it is more consistent with the plots we have and our discussions in distributions over time.
Could you please review this PR and let me know if there is anything I should change?
Many thanks in advance.
