@taeric, by "the book" do you mean SICP or HtDP? HtDP was used for a few years at Georgia Tech, and then that stopped. There are various views on why. (-:

Apologies for the ambiguous pronoun. Sadly, I wouldn't have known one from the other back then. When I found SICP, some of the things I recalled hearing from CS friends made sense. So, I assumed that was the book.

Curious if there are any expansions on why it was dropped.
