Quote:Original post by Alpha_ProgDes no SICP knowledge is assumed. We expect you to have some knowledge of general programming. If you're not famillar or even comfortable with data structures: linked lists, heaps, queue, stack, etc. There are more than enough programmers in the Study Group to help out with that [smile] as far as explaining algorithms for those data structures that is.
Fair enough, will SICP just jump right into these topics, or will they explain them before giving you examples?
Read the first chapter and find out. [smile]
Okay, I read the foreward, which may have been a bit over my head (I'll try reading it later at a not as late hour), but the introduction of Chapter 1 made sense to me. I'm gonna go get some sleep and start Chapter 1 tommorow.

Just in time too :)
I mean, why would you get your medical advice anywhere else?
I haven't been a member here for years, and I probably won't interact with this group much, but routine and deadlines are exactly what I need.

I'm unstickying this, since it's been up for a while. Hope the class is going well :)
