Programming Languages: Application and Interpretation book - available online

Tuesday, December 16, 2003

Shriram Krishnamurthi has bundled the material from the CS173 course that he is teaching at Brown University into an online book titled Programming Languages: Application and Interpretation. In the announcement on the plt-scheme list, he says:

"This is the text for my course at Brown, which I supplement with some material that I discuss in the Preface. The course uses Scheme and is interpreter-based, but diverges considerably from EoPL in both style and coverage. In particular, it is part of my continuing attempt to find a happy medium between the interpreter and survey-of-languages schools of teaching programming languages."
In my previous post, I mentioned that I had found his chapters on Macros very useful.
