Some books will have a new look! We are gradually migrating to PreTeXt as our primary authoring language. If you have a student that needs a paper copy or even braille contact us. Althogh they will not be interactive 😄

Some books will have a new look! We are gradually migrating to PreTeXt as our primary authoring language. See <a href="runestone.academy/ns/books/published/httlacs/index.html?mode=browsing">How to Think Like a Computer Scientist: PreTeXt Interactive Edition</a> To see what the future looks like. If you have a student that needs a paper copy or even braille contact us. Although they will not be interactive. :-) Of course we welcome feedback on this new style.
