The first example code is "aliasing" but doesn't explain what a variable
is, or a function, or a list. It might be possible to discover these
concepts using the simulator but it is probably better explained in words.
Does anyone know of a suitable ebook or tutorial which the simulator could
be used with? Thinking of the cases where there is no one to guide the
student.
Thanks
