It's a neat idea to write the entire book as notebooks - so you can have run-able code right in line. Definitely excited to check this out; thanks Jeremy and S

- smohare 7y agoThese sorts of books have existed since the dawn of notebooks. While I think them useful for demonstrations, I don’t think there is much pedantic value (beyond a more static medium) in all honesty. Well-worked examples a student can consult while attempting to solve problems on their own is still of paramount importance.
