A Graphics Design Language
The goal of this problem set is to reinforce ideas about data
abstraction and higher-order procedures, and to emphasize the
expressive power that derives from appropriate primitives, means of
combination, and means of abstraction. We'll do this by working with
Peter Henderson's ``square-limit'' graphics design language, which is
described in section 2.2.4 of the textbook. You should study that
section before beginning work on this assignment.
