SICP and promises
(permalink)
A few days ago I blogged about be working through SICP in ARC. I was going to track my progress on bluwiki.
My personal goal was to make some progress every day. That hasn't happened.
I'm thinking about abandoning ARC, and just working through SICP in scheme. Scheme & ARC are remarkably similar, it seems the only difference is semantics. It'd be a lot easier scheme, since I wouldn't have to translate all the problems. Also, the language is more mature - so I suspect the libraries are more robust.
We'll see - I'm going to take a crack on SICP 1.2 and 1.3 this weekend, and I'll make a decision after that.
