RScheme is an object-oriented, extended version of the Scheme dialect of Lisp.
|
||
|
|
RScheme is freely redistributable, and offers reasonable performance despite
|
||
|
|
being extraordinarily portable. RScheme can be compiled to C, and the C can
|
||
|
|
then compiled with a normal C compiler to generate machine code. By default,
|
||
|
|
however, RScheme compiles to bytecodes which are interpreted by a (runtime)
|
||
|
|
virtual machine. This ensures that compilation is fast and keeps code size
|
||
|
|
down. In general, we recommend using the (default) bytecode code generation
|
||
|
|
system, and only compiling your time-critical code to machine code. This
|
||
|
|
allows a nice adjustment of space/time tradeoffs.
