This package the Gambit-C Scheme programming system. Gambit-C
|
|
includes a Scheme interpreter and a Scheme compiler which can be used
|
|
to build standalone executables. Because the compiler generates
|
|
portable C code it is fairly easy to port to any platform with a
|
|
decent C compiler.
|
|
|
|
The Gambit-C system conforms to the R4RS, R5RS and IEEE Scheme standards.
|
|
The full numeric tower is implemented, including: infinite precision
|
|
integers (bignums), rationals, inexact reals (floating point numbers),
|
|
and complex numbers. Gambit-C supports a number of extensions to the
|
|
standards. Please see the <http://gambit.uri.umontreal.ca/~gambit/wiki>
|
|
for more information: there is simply not enough room here to elaborate!
