This class will focus on developing programming techniques in a variety of programming languages. Possible languages include C, C++, Java, Haskell, ML, and OCAML. This is an opportunity to explore languages in more depth, increase you expertise in programming, prepare for more advanced work, and increase the depth and breadth of your programming background. In connection with the practical programming component we will also read papers on programming language design, emphasizing recent language innovations such as generics, multi-paradigm languages, the introduction of lambda terms and their role, and higher-order programming.
