> "This course is taught in LISP. We'll be spending one class on the peculiarities of our system, but otherwise you're on your own. If you don't learn it, you'll fail." SCIP (well loved on HN) was designed for as the introductory class for freshpersons who'd never seen a computer before (which was the default case when the course was designed). The first lecture was about how to program in lisp, using the example of symbolic differentiation. That one lecture was 100% of the introduction to computers and programming: the rest of the semester was spent on computer science. |
