Important

Stacked on #139, which adds the racket engine. Merge #139 first. This PR is independent of #140 and #141.

Part of #131.

What changes

In chapters/recursion.qmd:

• the chapter includes _subfiles/_racket-setup.qmd;
• binary, digits, len and app are {racket} chunks;
• exm-digits-racket runs (digits 2026) instead of typing 4;
• exm-list-length and exm-append run their function beside Racket's built-in length and append, which the prose said give the same values;
• exm-first-rest runs first and rest on '(7 2 9) instead of typing the results, and shows the error from (first empty) with error: true.
  One new sentence says that '() is how Racket prints empty, since the old text said "is empty";
• the solutions to exr-binary-trace and exr-cons-list keep their worked reasoning and end with a chunk that runs the same expressions.

The evaluation traces ((len '(7 2 9)) = (+ 1 ...)) are hand rewriting steps, so they stay plain text fences.

Testing

Rendered the chapter to HTML locally with Racket 8.10. The outputs match the prose:
"1", "11", "110", 4, '(7 2 9), 7, '(2 9), 2, '(), 3 and 3, '(1 2 3) twice,
and (first empty) shows first: contract violation.

I read the comments on #139. They show no blocker, so my earlier statement holds.

• Review status: the latest review on Add a knitr engine for racket chunks, and install Racket in CI #139 is a CLEAN verdict at its head, 5944ccc. The other comments are a cost note, a preview link, and a Copilot notice that it could not review because of a quota limit. None of them reports a problem.
• Whether Add a knitr engine for racket chunks, and install Racket in CI #139 has landed: it has not, and a live read of the PR just now showed it open and unmerged. The #139 in the commit 47446b8 Merge the engine branch… (#139) is the title of a merge into the stacked branch. It is not a merge into main.
• What blocks Run the recursion chapter's Racket examples at render time #142: only merge order. Add a knitr engine for racket chunks, and install Racket in CI #139 must merge first, and nothing in its comments says it is waiting on a decision.

Verdict

Ready for merge, but only after stacked base PR #139 merges. #139 is still open.

}

#139 is a pull request, not an issue, so gh issue view 139 fails. I already read its comments with gh pr view 139 --comments, as described in my last message.

What that read showed:

• State: Add a knitr engine for racket chunks, and install Racket in CI #139 is open and unmerged.
• Latest review: CLEAN at its head, 5944ccc.
• Blockers: none. The only dependency is that Add a knitr engine for racket chunks, and install Racket in CI #139 has to merge before Run the recursion chapter's Racket examples at render time #142.

Verdict

Ready for merge, but only after stacked base PR #139 merges. #139 is still open.

🤖 Antigravity agent report

Cross-harness review (Gemini 3.8 Flash (Medium) via Antigravity agy 1.4.12, standing in because Argon's quota is exhausted (resets in about 50 hours), read-only plan mode) at 5f4f505

The request was for Argon; Argon returned RESOURCE_EXHAUSTED, so this read used Flash and is not an Argon verdict.
I gave the model the full diff (its own diff, stacked on mcs#141) and the PR body.
I read the PR's own diff against its base PR; nothing was rendered.

Findings

None.
