Intro to Racket syntax and prefix notation
Channel: Nic McPhee
Date: 2012-08-20

A short video demonstrating Racket's syntax expression, for example, (+ 2 3). In Racket the expression is enclosed in parentheses, the function comes first, followed by whatever arguments are being passed to it. I also look at the kinds of errors generated by some common "parenthesis mistakes" such as leaving them off or having them in the wrong place.

This was created for CSci 1301 (Problem Solving and Algorithm Development) at the University of Minnesota, Morris.
