The lecture covered material from Chapter 5 of the textbook. Read through this, making sure you understand how the version of the wall following robot on pages 72-73 works.

The lecture did not cover Section 5.4 from the textbook (pages 77-79) and you do not need to cover it in your reading either.

The original paper on Elman networks is:
