Scheme is primarily a functional programming language. It shares many characteristics with other members of the Lisp programming language family. Scheme's very simple syntax is based on s-expressions, parenthesized lists in which a prefix operator is followed by its arguments. Scheme programs thus consist of sequences of nested lists.
Scheme was the first dialect of Lisp to choose lexical scope. It was also one of the first programming languages after Reynold's Definitional Language [15] to support first-class continuations. It had a large impact on the effort that led to the development of its sister-language, Common Lisp, to which Guy Steele was a contributor. [16]
GNU Ubiquitous Intelligent Language for Extensions [3] (GNU Guile) is the preferred extension language system for the GNU Project [4] and features an implementation of the programming language Scheme. Its first version was released in 1993. [1]
MIT/GNU Scheme is a programming language, a dialect and implementation of the language Scheme, which is a dialect of Lisp. It can produce native binary files for the x86 (IA-32, x86-64) processor architecture. It supports the R7RS-small standard. [3] It is free and open-source software released under v2 or later of the GNU General Public ...
Scheme 48 is a programming language, a dialect of the language Scheme, an implementation using an interpreter which emits bytecode. [2] It has a foreign function interface for calling functions from the language C [3] and comes with a library for regular expressions (regex), [4] and an interface for Portable Operating System Interface (). [5]
Mostly based on Scheme and Common Lisp, was designed as system and application programming language by Apple; first used to write an operating system and applications for internal prototypes of the later released Apple Newton computer; first official version of Apple Dylan also had s-expression based syntax; Apple collaborated with partners to ...
