Yes, I'm sure given 729 hours it'd come up with something useful.


Think of 1 1/2 hour commute. That is almost 2 years. It's a graduate level text. Way advanced.

I would mention Knuth, but many problems in his books are still yealding PhDs. Way above my grade.

There is a lot of problems I would like to look at hints.

Kudos to your achievement.


Is 'It is' here referring to SICP?

SICP is a graduate level text? That was literally the first CS book I had to buy as an undergrad.


Yeah, it was written for first year students at MIT. Those are definitely more advanced students than at many other universities, but it is written for 1st-2nd year college students in a technical (math, science, engineering) discipline.


There were places that were all too happy to copy MIT as well.
