6.001 Spring 98: Handouts and Documentation

Debugging in Scheme: Slides from Jim Miller's lecture on debugging, February 9.
6.001 General Information: This memo was distributed at the first lecture. It describes basic subject information, required work, and policies.
DON'T PANIC: An Introductory Guide to the 6.001 Computer System: This manual is a basic orientation to the Scheme programming environment, designed for students taking 6.001. Copies were distributed at the first lecture and this manual is also included with the MIT 6.001 Scheme implementations.
Guide to MIT Scheme: This is the reference manual for MIT Scheme, listing all the commands. You should need to look at this rarely, if at all, for 6.001, since any Scheme features required for the course will be introduced in classes and problem sets. This manual is included with the MIT 6.001 Scheme implementations. There is also a version of this manual as a single file.
Revised⁴ Report on the Algorithmic Language Scheme.: This is the formal definition of the Scheme language. It will be interesting for you to look at how a language is described formally, but you should not need to consult this for 6.001. This is also included with the MIT 6.001 Scheme implementations.
