Work initiated by D. S. Scott and C. Strachey in the 1960s, and contributed to by many up to the present writing, yields a framework for program semantics in which every data type is a domain and every computed function is continuous. We provide a critique of these basic assumptions in Section 1, but then proceed to develop an introduction to this theory of ordered semantics in the remaining sections.
