[–] eranation 13y ago ↗ I have, it is a good introduction to both functional programming and Scala. I later found out that many of the assignments are derived from SICP. [–] vukmir 13y ago ↗ Thank you eranation.I've played a bit with Scheme and Haskell. Scala is the next on the list and this course looks like an excellent opportunity to check it out.
