Which universities for Computer Science still use non-meme texts like SICP? (MIT switched to Python but that's because the electrical engineers need it interface with the libraries control their robots)
>>
All the universities that I knew of switched to Python. Bump for interest.
>>
Can nobody think of a university that still teaches Scheme?
>>
>>7728722
eh. should probably be learning clojure instead anyway.
>>
>>7728722
Not for 1xxx and 2xxx classes (that I know of).

ToPL classes use it sometimes.

Well at MIT i know that Han Solo's son kills him and is the main bad guy in the new starwars movie. The movie is now completely ruined.

UC Berkeley teaches with SICP
>>
Caltech uses it for CS4 iirc
>>
>>7728468

SICP is a meme and not even good at anything it does. Just get books dedicated to the topics covered
>>
>>7728468
UC Berkeley still does in an alternate intro class

the normal one, called CS 61A is in phython
but you can take the special one called CS 61AS which is still in scheme, its also self paced and theres a few other differences
>>
>>7728722
I think you can still choose SICP at MIT instead of the Python class if you've programmed before

Does Berkeley still teach SICP? I think you can do the same there.

If you live in Sweden, stockholm university uses SICP for the intro class
>>
>>7728945
IIRC, the normal class also covers scheme along with python. You write a scheme interpreter in python as one of the projects.

What if an university uses both Scheme and Java?
>>
>>7730453
>an university
Kill yourself
>>
Teaches a language that's basically scheme with a new IDE for a semester/year, then C/++ in the subsequent..meme "theory" school desu senpai
>>
>>7728722
i'm at a state school and they teach scheme
>>
>>7728722
I go to Stevens and one of the required courses for CS includes Scheme.
>>
>>7728739
Didn't they switch to Python?
>>
>>7729344
Sick. I plan on going there for grad school. I'm glad their CS department is not a joke.
>>
>>7730490
here is some explanation for why 61A is now in phython

https://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~bh/61a.html

they use something adapted from SICP
>>
>>7728722
At Waterloo we did Racket which is a dialect of Scheme
>>
>>7728722
academic retardism at its finest
