Master Coding with Scheme
Discover the beauty of functional programming with Scheme. It uses a simple syntax based on lists to teach powerful concepts like recursion and lambda functions.
(display "Hello, Scheme!")
(define (factorial n)
(if (= n 0)
1
(* n (factorial (- n 1)))))About Scheme
Scheme is a minimalist dialect of the Lisp programming language. It is known for its clean, simple syntax and powerful features like first-class procedures and continuations. It is often used in computer science courses to teach the fundamental concepts of programming.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Why are there so many parentheses?
-
The parentheses define the structure of the code (lists). It might look strange at first, but it is very consistent and logical.
- Is Scheme useful in the real world?
-
Yes! The concepts you learn in Scheme (like functional programming) will make you a better programmer in any language.
