SICP

Hello /prog/
I am reading SICP, should i do all exercises of the book?
I can't wrap my head around the code.
I've even googled for solutions, but i have to write them down and follow/write each call with pencil.

Seriously, i wouldn't have problem with most of the algorithms given if i could use some other language.

Do i fail at maths?
help.

Well done, you can use a dictionary. Now can you also figure out why that adjective does not apply to the exercises in SICP?
