Learning objectives
- Explain First-Class Procedures and Higher-Order Functions in the language of the current curriculum, not just the source book.
- Apply First-Class Procedures and Higher-Order Functions to one concrete learner task or example inside this semester.
- Use
sicp,the-c-programming-languageas a selective source of truth when the learner-facing explanation is not enough.
Prerequisites
- The earlier concept pages and practice tasks in the current module.
