1.2 Elements of Programming
ust be written for people to read, and only incidentally for machines to execute. When we describe a language, we should pay particular attention to the means that the language provides for combining simple ideas to form more complex ideas. <span>Every powerful language has three such mechanisms: primitive expressions and statements , which represent the simplest building blocks that the language provides, means of combination , by which compound elements are built from simpler ones, and means of abstraction , by which compound elements can be named and manipulated as units. In programming, we deal with two kinds of elements: functions and data. (Soon we will discover that they are really not so distinct.) Informally, data is stuff that we want to manipul
