I would benefit from such a primer.

Computer programming has a direct mapping to mathematical notation. For example:

>  i ∈ V

is equivalent to:

% set up
V = new HashSet();
V.add(i);
% equivalence
assertTrue(V.contains(i))

What I could do is write a short article entitled, something along the lines 
of, "The Symbols, Syntax, and Semantics of Mathematics and Computation." At 
which point, I can establish the mapping between mathematical notation and 
programming statements.

Thoughts?,
Marko.
