Where This Class Leads
What you leave able to do
- generalise several sources into a position you can defend

- construct a predictive account of a models behaviour
- design an interaction protocol for responsible use
- reconcile a working set with the context window it must fit
- synthesise a metalanguage for a problem domain
How you show it. The notation's grammar, a work produced in it that exceeds the context window, and a consistency check a reader runs to catch contradictions.
