commonly associated with computers and programming languages. Topics covered
includes: Variable Binding, Control Operations, Operations on Objects, Input and
Output, Syntactic Extension, Extended Examples and Extended Examples.
This book is primarily intended as

divided into three parts, dealing with procedural abstractions, data
abstractions, and abstractions of state.
