[m-users.] A New Tutorial

[Volker Wysk]

Hi, Zetian!

Thank you very much for writing and sharing this. I had a look at your
tutorial. Nothing new to me, but it looks like just the right combination of
formality and informal explanation (in chapter two). Very suitable for
newbies.

There's a problem with formulas in the HTML version. I get them, for
instance, like this: "\(fac(0, 1) \leftarrow \top\)". In the PDF version
all's neat and nice (looks very much like Latex. ;-) )

I've added your tutorial to the Mercury resources list:

https://volker-wysk.de/mercury/resources.html#zetian-lins-mercury-tutorial

Please announce it on this list, when you finished your book.

Best wishes,
Volker
