Other Guides To Relevent Reading

You can find out where the material from the lecture is in the books by looking up a topic in the index. Touretzky's index isn't all that bad. The index of CLtL2 is 49 pages long ( in it's various incarnations ). That is longer than the language specification for Scheme! If you're looking for something it is probably in there ( For fun look up "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle" ).

Guide to Abbreviations
