Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs: Course Description
Upon completion of this free OpenCourseWare from MIT, students will be able to control the complexity of large computer programming systems. This online offering shows students how to build abstractions, design new computer programming languages and control interaction through interfaces. It introduces students to programming styles and aesthetics while providing the skills to understand and edit programs written in the Scheme programming language. Students study topics, such as data abstractions, higher order procedures and object-oriented methods and will learn to design and implement Scheme programs that integrate these key concepts. MIT Professors Eric Grimson, Trevor Darrell and Peter Szolovits lead this undergraduate course in the electrical engineering and computer science sequence. Special software is required
Readings, lecture and recitation notes, quizzes with solutions, projects and supporting files, tools and other related resources are available for free online. If you're interested in taking this course, visit the Structure and Interpretation of Computer _Programs course page.
