• Computer Science students in Germany are often demotivated to study the official introductory textbook for Computer Science from the MIT, the legendary SICP book by Harald Abelson and Gerald Jay Sussman: Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs, even though it is highly recommended by professors.

  ``Programmierung PUR'' could help those students, because it is more basic and nevertheless has a similar goal, to introduce programming based on the Lambda Calculus (This goal is never defined in the SICP-book, but it is obvious for anybody knowing to interpret the exclusive usage of Scheme code in the book. Scheme has been developed by the MIT in 1975 to prove that it is possible to develop a language on the basis of the Lambda Calculus that can be used following the three most popular programming paradigms: imperative, functional and message passing.).

  ``Programmierung PUR'' could both serve as a stepping stone towards the SICP-book or as a supplement to it.
