Readings specified are from the Russell & Norvig text (RN) and from the optional Sussman and Abelson text (SA) (which I recommend as the best book available on programming concepts.) Additional readings may be handed out in class during the quarter. "Programming" refers to learning Lisp (Scheme) or Prolog.
