I found "Picturing Programs" by Stephen Bloch to be an excellent introduction to Racket, even better than the htdp docs.
_____ From: users-boun...@racket-lang.org [mailto:users-boun...@racket-lang.org] On Behalf Of Saad Bashir Sent: Saturday, July 06, 2013 7:04 AM To: Racket mailing list Subject: [racket] Request for guidance I am a novice programmer - actually a novice learner - and this group and 2HTDP have been invaluable resources for me - really inspirational. Through this group I learned about the launch of Realm of Racket. I also noted the advice by Matthias about the sequence to follow in learning (BSL. ISL, ASL, racket). I am in the first third of HTDP/2. What I want to know is should I start with Realm of Racket too? I have obtained it and seems fun and has Matthias's name - as a guarantor of quality - on it. Or should I complete HTDP and if I do so, will not need to go through Realm of Racket at all? Or should I do Realm of Racket first and then HTDP? Please give me an opinion. I know Matthias follows posts and will be very grateful for his advice. Saad
