I ran the following commands on the latest repo: find . -name \*.c | xargs wc # 310,178 lines find . -name \*.h | xargs wc # 54,558 lines find . -name \*.rkt | xargs wc # 211,357 lines If those can be trusted, Racket consists of 364,736 (63%) C and 211,357 (37%) Racket. I was under the impression that the C code was in the minority, but I guess that's not the case. I suppose it makes little difference to me as an application programmer. It just makes me happy to have more of a language implemented in itself :) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Racket Users" group.
