Scheme Resources For People with Lisp experience

I would like to use scheme (gambit-c) for a personel project. I have experience with clojure and familiarity with common lisp. I a开发者_Python百科m looking for books/documents that will quickly get me up to speed with scheme's idiosyncrasies something like the oreilly's pocket reference series.


The best introductory tutorial must be Teach Yourself Scheme in Fixnum Days by Dorai Sitaram. Kent Dybvig's The Scheme Programming Language provides a full coverage of the R5RS specification of the language and teaches how to write idiomatic Scheme code. If you are working with the latest specification (R6RS), see the 4th edition of the same book.


It is sad that someone like me with next-to-nothing scheme or lisp experience should have to answer this question, but because nobody has answered you so far, I'll try. The only scheme book I have read is The Little Schemer (I own The Seasoned Schemer, but have not leveled up enough for that yet). The authors point out syntactic differences between scheme and lisp throughout the two books, mostly in short, cute footnotes. It is all core language differences, nothing to do with libraries of any sort. I always thought that those notes would be useful to me one day when I might have to move between scheme and list. Hope that helps.
