Report on the Algorithmic Language Scheme
The report gives
a defining description of the programming language Scheme. Scheme is a
statically scoped and properly tail-recursive dialect of the Lisp programming
language invented by Guy Lewis Steele Jr. and Gerald Jay Sussman. It was
designed to have an exceptionally clear and simple semantics and few different
ways to form expressions. This PDF covers the following topics related to Scheme
: Introduction, Overview of Scheme, Requirement levels, Numbers, Lexical syntax
and datum syntax, Semantic concepts, Entry format, Libraries, Top-level
programs, Primitive syntax, Expansion process, Base library.
