Why is this guy being voted down for a decently formed comment?
- Confusion 17y agoPerhaps because people are dumbfounded by him introducing BASIC into the disctussion for no obvious reason whatsoever.
- krschultz 17y agobecause SICP was a great introduction, personally I think that Scheme (at least at first) is easier to pick up than Python. Our professor taught us basic Scheme in 40 minutes no problem. Python takes longer than that because there is more syntax. Basically all you need in scheme are some () and define, lambda, cons, car, cdr, and cond for the first 4 or 5 weeks.
