QUICK NOTE:
=====
* big-bang's on-tick clause can accept an optional 2nd argument,
to set the speed of its ticker;
default: ticks every 1/28 seconds;
* so if you set it to 1, it ticks about 1 time per second:
(on-tick desired-funct 1)
* 0.25, it ticks about 4 times per second (every 0.25 second):
(on-tick desired-funct 0.25)
* on Problem 3 of today's lab exercise, you are asked to write a big-bang
expression that uses an on-tick second argument of 1, so its
side-effects will not zip by too quickly! 8-)
