Racket is a little too complex for my tastes. It's a little too big, a little to exerimental, a little too complex, a little too magical. I lean towards R7RS and CHICKEN myself, which are on the opposite end in terms of Scheme implementations. Guile's nice too.
- TheMagicHorsey 10y agoI do agree, that it gets too big. I mentioned complexity for that reason. Its also not very performant, BUT you can call C functions quite easily, and you can embed Racket programs into your existing C/C++ programs.
- qwertyuiop924 10y agoYeah, but Chibi, CHICKEN, Gambit, and Guile are all excellent at FFI, and fairly good at embedding (although for CHICKEN and Gambit, it depends on the given value of embedding... That's more Chibi and Guile's forte, as it was for SCM, SIOD, and TinyScheme before them.)
