Lab Day held in ALAMODE.
Due Today:
Homework 2
Note
I have updated the starter code to allow for quasiquotations and unquotes. These features are unnecessary for the assignment, but there is no reason for me to prevent you from using them.

- Study for Exam 2
2019-03-07: Racket Intro Continue¶

To do for Tuesday:
An example of a recursive solution for the function described on the last slide is:
(define (sin-odd list)
(if (null? list)
list
(if (odd? (car list))
(cons (sin (car list)) (sin-odd (cdr list)))
(sin-odd (cdr list)))))
This is quite cumbersome as compared to the version which uses map and
filter:
(define (sin-odd list)
(map sin (filter odd? list)))
In fact, some people would argue that using recursion in a functional
programming language (as opposed to utilizing higher order functions) is the
functional programming equivalent to the procedural goto statement.
