MORE BASICS:    • The Basics  

MINOR CORRECTIONS:
In the graphics, "programme" should be "program".
I say "Mac instead of PC"; that should be "a phone instead of a PC".
And most importantly, I say "every sixth cycle": that should be "every ninth".
Fortunately, none of these materially affect the content of the video!
