Slide 15.1.1 Why do we need an interpreter? Our goal over the next few lectures is to build an interpreter which in a very basic sense is the ultimate in programming, since doing so will allow us to define our language
The role of abstractions In this lecture, we are going to look at a very different style of creating large systems, a style called object oriented programming. This style focuses on breaking systems up in a different manner than those we have seen before To set the stage for this, we are first going to return to the notion of
luse this is the central part of the environment model, let's look in very painful detail at an example of an evaluation. In (square 4)I g particular, let's look at the evaluation of (square 4)with x;10 respect to the global environment. Here is the structure we start
Slide 12.1.1 In the last lecture, we introduced mutation as a component of 6001s|cP our data structures We saw for example that set was a Environment mode way of changing the value associated with a variable in our system, and we saw that set-car! and set-cdr! were ways of changing the values of parts of list structure Now, several important things happened when we introduced
ome of the theoretical exercise I will assign are actually well-known results; in other cases you may be able to find the answer in the literature. This is certainly the case for the current My position on this issue is that, basically, if you look up the answer somewhere it's your problem. After all, you can buy answer keys to most textbooks. The fact is, you will not

Recall the following definitions: in any model M=(Q, (Ti, ai, piie), Ri is the event Player i is rational\;R=nieN Ri. Also, Bi(E) is the event \Player i is certain that E is true\ and B(E)=neN Bi(E). This is as in Lecture
