Is it possible to follow along The Little Schemer with Clojure? I'm afraid I don't know any other lisp.

- goldfeld 12y agoThe Little Schemer actually teaches you Scheme from the ground up, and as a Clojure Programmer myself I'm feeling right at home.
- rdc12 12y agoI believe I have seen some of The Little Schemer code translated into Clojure, and most of that looked pretty trivial changes. But I doubt you would gain anything from doing that. If you know Clojure you can pick up what you need of Scheme (new concepts get added as you progress throu the book) almost immediately. It really is not a book on Scheme, but of thinking about problems in a recursive way. Some of the TCO stuff, may not translate well either. IMHO it would be distraction from what the book is about.
