On the one hand, it feels exciting to be around a programming language

If you're interested in a concept, why not read about it (it's easy to
find a quick definition for most terms on Google, and more details in
research papers), then ask *specific* questions on the list? Posting
to the list about how you don't understand something, without any
suggestion as to how anyone else could help, doesn't accomplish a lot.
I wasn't being entirely serious. ;-)
We've got a whole other thread going about trying to understand the
difference between existential and universal quantification. Suffice it
to say I'm still confused. I guess this is going to be one of those
concepts I'll just never understand.
