As a Clojure developer who did write some Racket, there is a satisfying purity to Scheme (at least to me).

- darby_eight 3y agoThis is a wonderful answer! I return to my main calling: figuring out why people use PLT scheme without an academic incentive. There must be an answer here somewhere....

- jnxx 3y agoI guess one can think of Clojure as a very Scheme-affine Lisp. Which is not surprising since Scheme was a kind of distilled iteration of Common Lisp as a common denominator. Are there any Schemes which are as "Batteries included" as Clojure with broad and deep library support? (I think Racket has quite good support!)
