I had assumed it was being done in Python https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14167453



Nope, that's just the 'intro to programming' class. The class for this book is "Classical Mechanics: A Computational Approach" (I think) and it's definitely still taught in Scheme.


While I'm glad to hear that, how does that work given that the students presumably won't have been taught Scheme from SCIP beforehand? Is it just a given that students taking the class learned Scheme on their own?


Thanks, I had assumed the intro class changing would signal a comprehensive shift.
