Slides:<https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1rkCXZyDmC-l0Wk3tGaPp0nEOP2OQPBK0KD5O5Q0iZ8A/edit?usp=sharing>

It's ok if you don't understand every detail, but make sure you have a high level idea of the concepts in this lecture! We will be using these concepts all throughout the course. The last section is more of a bonus on how to use Kotlin's standard library to make your code even more concise, optionally take a look at those slides we didn't get to during class.
