Features: This book introduces the general theory and practice of computation and programming based on the Scheme language. It consists of 8 parts and 7 independent chapters (Chapters 8, 13, 18, 24, 29, 33, and 38). The 8 parts primarily discuss programming, while the independent chapters introduce topics related to programming and computation. The first three parts of the book cover the fundamentals of data-driven programming. The fourth part explores abstract issues in programming. The fifth and sixth parts focus on recursion and accumulation. The last two parts explain the significance of designing programs, elaborating on how to apply the programming techniques described in the first six parts, as well as the importance of being cautious when using assignment statements. This book can serve as a textbook and teaching reference for university computer science and technology majors in "Introduction to Programming" and "Introduction to Computation," as well as an introductory textbook for functional languages and the Scheme language.
