- skissane 6y agoScheme doesn't have a "strong type system", "pattern matching", or "immutability-by-default". Scheme didn't standardise those very features in the 70s and 80s – it still doesn't have them. Some of those features are available in add-on libraries or as extensions in some specific Scheme implementations, but they are thus far absent from the standardised language.
