Zmitro: I'll definitely use 4clojure in teaching, but I'm looking for more interactive tasks so I can use graphics/sound/charts/something else to visualize them. Murtaza: It's a great idea, but I'm experienced enough to take such task :) Thank you, Nikita On Wed, Sep 12, 2012 at 8:43 AM, Murtaza

Thinking aloud, clojure could be used to create a DSL using which the students can experiment with concepts from different sciences, and see the results / effects in a graphical manner !! On Wednesday, September 12, 2012 11:03:04 AM UTC+5:30, Murtaza Husain wrote: > > > This is really interes

This is really interesting. I am wondering if the idea could be broadened to not just teach CS, but also maths, physics and chemistry. A curriculum in which programming is used as a tool to explore the different sciences. An integrated curriculum to teach the different sciences. Please keep

As for the trolley, this is how I see it: The state of the system is defined by: 1. the (current) number of parts the machines have in their input and output queues 2. the (current) number of parts in the trolley (may be limited by 1) 3. whether the machine is currently processing a part can also

It's really great that you are going to teach Clojure at BSU. I have no clue about teaching, but my impression is that back in my days, we didn't learn much about how to write good code. Maybe things were different in 'informatics', but in 'applied mathematics', for instance, we only had exposur

Thanks for idea, Igor. Seems like some kind of simulation (looking at your example and clojure ants demo) can be a good example of concurrency. Thank you, Nikita On Sun, Aug 12, 2012 at 2:01 PM, Igor Kupczyński wrote: > Hi, > > For a java course at my university students had to write a railway

Hi, For a java course at my university students had to write a railway simulator - the idea was more or less to write randomly generate a map with railways and regular roads. Some of the tracks where double (i.e. trains can go both directions at the same time) and the other just a single track

Hello I'm going to organize little clojure course at my university this year. For this I want to implement set of tasks that hopefully will help to practise clojure. Tasks will be animated so students can see how their solutions work. E.g. one of the tasks is to hit plane by missile: there is a
