An introduction to the Racket functional programming language and DrRacket development environment to explore topics in mathematics (mostly recreational) and computer science.

Racket Programming the Fun Way couples the beginner-friendly Racket programming language with fun applications and examples that cover a wide range of computer science topics in order to demonstrate computational approaches to solving mathematical problems.

James W. Stelly is a semiretired systems analyst and developer of several business-line applications utilizing backend databases. He has degrees in mathematics and computer science from the University of Houston, and this book is a result of his lifelong interest in those topics.
