Thank you, Sam- I'm apparently reading a pdf version published in 2002 (Copyright 2001 Third Printing). Of course, it still refers to DrScheme and Scheme. Is there a newer one?
I'm at Exercise 2.2.1, converting Fahrenheit to Celsius. The exercise calls for installing the teachpack "convert.ss" but that isn't in the list of teachpacks I see listed in DrRacket. I tried to install convert.rkt, but I have no idea if it actually installed or not because I didn't get any feedback telling me it was successful. I presumed that I should use the "Beginner" student version of Racket, but that isn't clear either. So, when I go to run my routine I get a "function is not defined" error, and I'm a little confused about what I missed. Huh! I just checked my version against the online version, and they are NOT the same! I prefer reading PDFs on my Android tablet, but I think I will need to see what happens when I follow the web version.
