- jacques_chester 13y agoI think that a better analogy is the Scheme of script languages.
- mseepgood 13y agoI always felt that Scheme was the Scheme of scripting languages. Or is Scheme rather the Lisp of scripting languages?
- mheathr 13y agoOne of my favorite Scheme reads was an e-mail discussion on whether it was possible to add OOP to a functional programming language, and then the author goes on to do so in a trivial amount of code. A cursory search doesn't turn up the exchange I had in mind though, or I would link it.
