Question:
How can systems be organized using combinators?
Answer: Systems can be organized by composing mix-and-match parts, ranging from small functions to whole arithmetics, with standardized interfaces. -
Question:
What is the benefit of separating control structure from the problem domain?
Answer: By separating control structure from the problem domain, it becomes easier to manage and make modifications to the system.
Object-Oriented Design Editorial Review
This book is seen as an academic exercise that provides some real-world benefits to experienced programmers. Some find the ideas overly complex, explained poorly or only suitable for niche interests. Others see a lot of value in the content, allowing developers to use strategies for designing software and helping to evolve design. Critics advise potential readers to be familiar with Scheme, have the ability to install it and use it on their machine, and know it well enough to expand it to match the functionality used in the book. Scheme seems to be essential as the example language used throughout the book. Although, the big idea behind the book is difficult to comprehend for some as it is written in advanced Scheme. The book does contain many neat ideas that need to be beaten into something usable that can be of help to experienced programmers or academics.
