INTRODUCTION TO THE
an induction risks teaching students that mathematical proof is a formal manip-ulation instead of teaching them what is and what is not a cogent argument. A second example occurs in Parts Two and Three, where I describe algorithms in prose instead of pseudocode. I don't spend much time programming Turing machines (or any other formal model).
