There is lots of documentation on the web on doing I/O in Scheme.

The simplest thing is the Scheme "read" command, which reads a Scheme- 
formatted input file into a variable.

For example, suppose you had the a file foo.dat containing the  
following text, including parentheses:

        (1 3 12.2
                14.5     16 18)

In Scheme, you would then write

(define port (open-input-file "foo.dat"))
(define foo (read port))
(close-input-port port)

Your variable foo would then be a list of numbers '(1 3 12.2 14.5 16  
18).
