Rationale

½ hour

Teaching a computer language like a logical system is possible.

But not necessarily helpful.

Everyone has studied a computer language so I can make some assumptions.

Rapid introduction of the important syntax.

(Feel free to interrupt with questions)

Then I go over things in more detail, but I can refer to things only covered briefly and you will have least have seen them.

Will assume you learn the syntax by practising. Course more about language idioms

You understand what computer languages are about
