Hi. I made my first zine, then translated it into English. > **[neprogramator-zine-en.pdf](https://neprogramator.cz/neprogramator-zine-en.pdf)** > > 273.28 KB It's for nonprogrammers who care to learn what programming is, so I am not sure this is right place to share. However, the approach uses Racket (or Scheme) to explain the programming, so I hope I am not too far. (The source for the zine and for template if someone is interested: [Neprogramator/zine - Codeberg.org](https://codeberg.org/Neprogramator/zine) and [~qeef/pdflatex-zine-template - sourcehut git](https://git.sr.ht/~qeef/pdflatex-zine-template)) ---

I think this is a great idea. I have two questions 1. Where will you publish this? 2. How will you evaluate it? Will you fill in the bank space at the end with next steps? Perhaps a link to download DrRacket and how to take next steps and het help? Best regards Stephen :beetle: ---

Fun, and it looks really nice! I wonder if you would be interested in Prabakhar Ragde's "Logic and Computation Intertwined", which builds a simple dependently-typed logical framework in Racket. [https://cs.uwaterloo.ca/~plragde/flaneries/LACI/](https://cs.uwaterloo.ca/~plragde/flaneries/LACI/) ---

Sure I am. Thank you for the tip. ---

Thank you. > Where will you publish this? Not sure I understand this question. It's published online, including the source code. > How will you evaluate it? I have no much chances other than to ask friends whom I give the zine. I will be happy for suggestions/feedback. > Will you fill in the bank space at the end with next steps? Perhaps a link to download DrRacket and how to take next steps and het help? Sure it can be done, I didn't think about that to be honest. The zine is originally a kind of summary of czech wikibook. Only the zine is translated, therefore I wanted to share it. ---

Oh, and I have a question as non-native english guy... When I wanted to shorten "first number" due to lack of space, I used "number-1". "1st-number" would be better, but still too long. Are there any better options nonprogrammers would understand? Thank you! ---

I think what you have is fine! You could also go with `1st-num`, `2nd-num`, if you prefer? ---

Thank you. If it's fine, I will keep it 🙂
