[racket] HtDP for programmers?

I am a novice programmer learning it primarily through How to Design
Programmes, 2nd edition.  I have to say it is a unique book, as it claims
and superbly designed and written.  I think any one who wants to learn
programming should go through the entire book - if he/she knows it, the
progress will be very quick and the result from the basics to the advanced
levels will be logical and lay a foundation for a lifetime.
