Section 1.1 seemed "not too bad" so I thought section one in a week would be pretty ok.
It hasn't been.
But it has been most interesting. Despite having been excellent at math in high school, including all the pure math, so much of it is long forgotten. From the depths of my mind gradually proof by induction crawls back out. Ancient methods from 7 years ago(ha! ancient my ass).
Scheme itself is ok, apart from the fact that nothing ever works because of the strict parsing.
(+a b)? Ooops.
If someone is going to learn scheme, it should probably be their first language. A lot of stuff makes plenty of sense, it's just that to someone that normally programs c, it has some nasty gotchas. Just gotta do exercise 1.28 and then onward to section 1.3! So exciting!
