Scheme for This Year’s New Language
After some debating I came across the much talked about book, The Little Schemer, at the Borders near Union Square in San Francisco. It compelled me to make a purchase and I’ve slowly started going through the examples. I really like technical books where you don’t actually have to be on a live computer to constantly try the exercises. And the cartoon elephants make me happy.
Next steps:
- Install an xUnit in this case, SchemeUnit
- Install a text editor/IDE looks like DrScheme. (Even OS X screen shots)

Great pick.
Fantastic book. Also you’re in for a treat with Dr. Scheme. It’s refreshing.
