Sorcerer's spell and programming

维基百科对SICP的词条注释用的是wizard这个词

Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs ( SICP ) is a computer science textbook by Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) professors Harold Abelson and Gerald Jay Sussman with Julie Sussman. It is known as the Wizard Book [1] in hacker culture.[2] It teaches fundamental principles of computer programming, including recursion, abstraction, modularity, and programming language design and implementation.

Textbook里的高频词汇是sorcerer,
歪楼查了查词源,
sorcery与Sort是同一词源ser,

sorcery | Origin and meaning of sorcery by Online Etymology Dictionary

真乃意外之喜,

两个领域的 apprentice都要从sort起步.

记得看过一部很古老的动画片(可能是’木偶奇遇记’), 里面的善良的白胡子老巫师, 施用魔法帮一个小孩子洗碗, (锅)碗瓢盆, 在空中排成一队,

竟然搜不到这个场景和图片.

按照 DND 之类世界观的解释,Wizard 是后天学习的需要按日记忆任意法术的法师,Sorcerer 是自然领悟但只能用有限种类法术的术士

之前群里有讨论说这本书super fundamental, 似乎跟幼儿园学数数一二三四五一样基础. 在几个大群里做了个简单实验, 发现没有一个人读过.

我也没有上过幼儿园,不妨碍我上小学 :joy:

闲的看这本书还不如直接写lisp实在,手操几个宏你就习得那本书精髓了
