Presentation slides

Check out this clever Scheme Tutorial presented as a work of Interactive Fiction. This is perhaps the most unique Scheme implementation I have ever come across, as it's entirely implemented in Z-code (a programming language desinged by Infocom for the Zork text adventure game). It includes a Scheme manual with all the information needed to solve each puzzle in the game. It starts off simple, but the last challenge is a real mind-bender! This is a great way to spend a rainy afternoon.
