/prog/ - Life beyond SICP

Name: Anonymous 2009-06-01 9:49

I read SICP, which I don't regret, but I haven't moved any further since then. For a year I've been I've been toying around with languages like LISP, doing Project Euler tasks. Now, when I hear that my friends will write a compiler, a basic OS or collaborate to create a simple game, I feel I'm behind. I don't think that they will need my linear-time fibonacci numbers. What do I do now, /prog/, what do I do after SICP?

You know you can get fibs in log(n), right?

I read SICP
I have a question
Does not compute. Read SICP again and again until you finally reach satori and no longer have a need to ask question.

I did all SICP exercises in Forth.

I am the compiler of my IDE.
Lexer is my body, and parser is my blood.
I have run over a thousand passes.
Unaware of optimal output.
Nor aware of correctness.
Withstood pain to create many executables.
Waiting for one's arrival.
I have no regrets, this is the only path.
My whole life was "Unlimited Code Works."

Actually, it's originally from an Anime, though I don't remember which one. Anyway, I'm just going to sage this thread now.

SICP covers a basic compiler so you're good on that front.

why not use the logarithmic time fibonacci numbers from exercise 1.19?

I've made many posts here explaining why Haskell is shit. I don't want to repeat them.

Really? You're comparing it to C++ and Javascript, when it's similar neither of them? LISP is far closer to Javascript than Haskell.

It has similarities to C++, but that's not what I wanted to point out. I was naming other shitty popular languages that you might make the mistake of spending time with.

Get it out of your head. There is nothing beyond SICP.

SICP is everything.
