dear Ted,

these are interesting and promising plans.

I remember that Gerald Jay Sussman and Jack Wisdom wrote the book
"Structure and Interpretation of Classical Mechanics". 
There is code (using Scheme ~ Lisp) parallel to the chapters of the book.

I wish you good luck for your exiting work.
I thank you very much for the actual MBE series.
