Lisp refresher lecture 1: Anatomy of lisp (23min--video)

Folks:

 The following link (from transferbigfiles) gets you a nearly 1gb sized video that plays for 23min and explaining
some much needed concepts of the anatomy of lisp. Note that depending on your connection the file may take from 10min to much longer to download.

Let me know if you find it useful, and I might continue a few more.

ps: If you want to see how it sort of looks like, you can check it out on google video.

Note however that you will have hard time reading most of the writing since google video
compresses to quite a low resolution (which is why I had to put the original on transferbigfiles)

  1. This is really helpful. If you have time, please continue the tutorial. I'd love to learn more tips and tricks. Seeing them in action while hearing them explained was the best way to learn this, and I could follow along.

  2. I also watched the first video. It was a big help! So far, I feel very good about following the lectures, and I have been reading the book without any problems. My biggest issue is when I try to use LISP to recreate what we have learned in the lectures, or code the pseudo-functions in the textbook, or write new code for the first project. It's a bridge I am having difficulty crossing. Any video the professor makes that helps me cross that gap is truly welcome.

  3. Thanks, that's a lot of good information. I have previously had a little experience with Scheme, but there is still a lot I didn't/don't know, so future installations would be much appreciated as well.
