90 minute video presentation from Marc Feeley, along with accompanying PowerPoint slides and source code, for a Scheme to C compiler. Good discussion of continuations and closures, as well as some dipping into the area of compiler construction.
I didn’t work through this but it looks like it might be a fun project to undertake (I’ll […]
Here is some advice on writing teachpacks for PLT’s DrScheme.
About teachpacks:
Teaching languages are small subsets of a full programming language. While such restrictions simplify error diagnosis and the construction of tools, they also make it impossible (or at least difficult) to write some interesting programs. To circumvent this restriction, it is possible to import teachpacks […]
Typed Scheme is a typed dialect of PLT Scheme. It integrates with modules written in other PLT dialects, and provides a type system designed to support common Scheme idioms.
Typed Scheme is a pretty neat language because it can can both use and be used by (untyped) Scheme code in PLT Scheme.
Eli released a library to facilitate interactive debugging in PLT Scheme.
Check out this list of soft real-time Scheme implementations!
ypsilon is the implementation of Scheme Programming Language, which conforms to the latest standard R6RS. It achieves a remarkably short GC pause time and the best performance in parallel execution as it implements “mostly concurrent garbage collection”, which is optimized for the multi-core CPU system.
If you are wondering “Why yet another Scheme implementation” you […]
