SICP学习笔记：计算机程序的构造与解释

Wikipedia of SICP

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structure_and_Interpretation_of_Computer_Programs

MIT Press published the first edition in 1984, and the second edition in 1996. It was formerly used as the textbook for MIT's introductory course in computer science. SICP focuses on discovering general patterns for solving specific problems, and building software systems that make use of those patterns.[2]

中文翻译： MIT出版社于1984年出版第一版，1996年出版第二版。它曾是MIT计算机科学入门课程的教材。SICP专注于发现解决特定问题的通用模式，并构建利用这些模式的软件系统。

关于这本书的讨论

Once you learned the big ideas, they thought, and this is my experience also, learning another programming language isn't a big deal; it's a chore for a weekend. I tell my students, "the language in which you'll spend most of your working life hasn't been invented yet, so we can't teach it to you. Instead we have to give you the skills you need to learn new languages as they appear.

中文翻译： 一旦你学会了这些大思想，他们认为，这也是我的经验，学习另一种编程语言并不是什么大事；这只是一个周末的琐事。我告诉我的学生，"你将在其中度过大部分工作生涯的语言还没有被发明出来，所以我们无法教你。相反，我们必须给你学习新语言出现时所需的技能。"

The idea that computer science should be about ideas, not entirely about programming practice, has since widened to include non-technical ideas about the context and social implications of computing.

中文翻译： 计算机科学应该关于思想而不是完全关于编程实践的理念，后来扩展到包括关于计算背景和社会影响的非技术思想。

And more importantly, (2) that they felt that the SICP curriculum no longer prepared engineers for what engineering is like today.

中文翻译： 更重要的是，(2) 他们认为SICP课程不再为工程师准备今天工程的样子。

So one of the things that we start with is, we say this course is about abstraction and modularity. And everybody says that now, but they weren't saying that then. So it was kind of, sort of a different, almost philosophical approach to how you think about programs. And the key thing is it says right in the introduction to the book is that, we don't think of programming so much as a way to get a computer to do stuff as a way to express ideas about how to do things.

中文翻译： 所以我们开始的一件事是，我们说这门课程是关于抽象和模块化的。现在每个人都在说这个，但当时他们并没有这么说。所以这是一种不同的，几乎是哲学的方法来思考程序。关键是在书的介绍中说的，我们不把编程看作是让计算机做事情的方式，而是表达如何做事情的想法的方式。

Exactly. But I think that's why from a very high level point of view, this notion of abstraction remains. It's just that now you can kind of abstract at a much higher level.

中文翻译： 确实如此。但我认为这就是为什么从非常高的层次来看，抽象这个概念仍然存在。只是现在你可以在更高的层次上进行抽象。
