Description: Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs by Harold Abelson, Gerald Jay Sussman Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description "This classic text teaches fundamental principles of computer programming, including recursion, abstraction, modularity, and programming language design and implementation. The approach focuses on discovering general patterns for solving specific problems, and building software systems that make use of those patterns. This version uses JavaScript as the language of instruction"-- Publisher Description A new version of the classic and widely used text adapted for the JavaScript programming language.A new version of the classic and widely used text adapted for the JavaScript programming language.Since the publication of its first edition in 1984 and its second edition in 1996, Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs (SICP) has influenced computer science curricula around the world. Widely adopted as a textbook, the book has its origins in a popular entry-level computer science course taught by Harold Abelson and Gerald Jay Sussman at MIT. SICP introduces the reader to central ideas of computation by establishing a series of mental models for computation. Earlier editions used the programming language Scheme in their program examples. This new version of the second edition has been adapted for JavaScript.The first three chapters of SICP cover programming concepts that are common to all modern high-level programming languages. Chapters four and five, which used Scheme to formulate language processors for Scheme, required significant revision. Chapter four offers new material, in particular an introduction to the notion of program parsing. The evaluator and compiler in chapter five introduce a subtle stack discipline to support return statements (a prominent feature of statement-oriented languages) without sacrificing tail recursion.The JavaScript programs included in the book run in any implementation of the language that complies with the ECMAScript 2020 specification, using the JavaScript package sicp provided by the MIT Press website.
