$ show edsomjr/Paradigmas
This repository is a comprehensive collection of lecture slides, problem sets, and code snippets for a university-level course on programming paradigms, taught by Prof. Edson Alves at Universidade de Brasília. It covers a wide range of paradigms including imperative (assembly, C, Fortran), functional (Haskell), logic (Prolog), object-oriented (Smalltalk), vector (APL), stack-oriented (Forth), and theoretical topics like lambda calculus, combinators, and Turing machines. The content is organized into topic-specific directories, each containing LaTeX slide decks (using custom classes `slides.cls` and `whiteboard.cls`) and corresponding code examples. While not a deployable application, the repository serves as a reusable template for creating similar educational materials, with consistent build scripts and shared LaTeX macros. The code examples are illustrative and tightly coupled to the slides, limiting standalone reuse. The repository shows signs of staleness (dependency on specific language versions, future-dated references, and no recent active development) but remains a valuable resource for educators in programming languages.
The LLM identified 4 files worth highlighting for reuse:
A custom LaTeX document class for slide presentations, providing consistent formatting, code inclusion commands (`\code`, `\inputsyntax`, `\inputcode`, `\inputsnippet`), and style definitions. It is used across multiple topic directories and can be extracted for reuse in any LaTeX slide project.
A Beamer theme package that adds a progress bar, custom block styles, and bibliography formatting. It is duplicated in many subdirectories but represents a self-contained, reusable theme for academic presentations.
A set of LaTeX macros (`\Qq`, `\Qlist`, `\Qitem`, `\Qtab`, `\Qrating`, etc.) designed for formatting questionnaires with checkboxes, rating scales, and code listings. Identical copies exist across all problem set directories, making it a reusable component for creating exercises.
Illustrates the use of the custom `whiteboard` document class with `tikzpicture`-based slides, `\bbcover`, `\bbtext`, `\bbnote`, and code inclusion commands. While not independently reusable, it demonstrates a consistent slide authoring pattern that could be extracted into a template.
