Nothing, but if you're starting from scratch and know you'd have a real world use-case for Clojure sometime soon, why not learn its APIs, warts, etc rather than Scheme's?
- tjr 17y agoSICP really isn't about learning Scheme, and probably shouldn't be about learning Clojure... but if someone wants to present the material in Clojure, sure, why not?
- l0stman 17y agoWell, SICP is hardly about Scheme itself as a language. Some features such as macros aren't mentioned at all. It has more emphasis on programming paradigms and Scheme is just a tool to convey them. Its core is small and simple enough that you could introduce advanced topics without the need for the reader to learn the language beforehand.
