[REBOL] Re: Morphing (was: About CONTINUATIONS)
Where would a developer begin, if one had an interest in implementing Scheme in REBOL? Lisp in Small Pieces is the name of the book you want. It's an excellent book on writing various Lisps with source code in Scheme. Converting this to Rebol shouldn't be too difficult.

Hi I found this site on scheme. http://www.ccs.neu.edu/home/dorai/t-y-scheme/t-y-scheme.html . You can download it entirely. I did know anything about this language before. I discovered it has many many things that reminds me Rebol.

Or... 'Programming and Metaprogramming in Scheme' Jon Pearce which teaches you how to implement any paradigm in Scheme, incluiding Scheme. Nice intro to programming as well. --Maarten On Thursday 28 February 2002 10:48, you wrote: Where would a developer begin, if one had an interest in implementing Scheme in REBOL?

[REBOL] Re: Morphing (was: About CONTINUATIONS)
Hi, Chaz,
I don't know if it's still in print, but a *very* good introduction
to LISP, requiring only standard programming skills, is in
_Functional_Programming_Application_and_Implementation_
by Peter Henderson,
Prentice-Hall, 1980
ISBN: 0-13-331579-7
It introduces functional programming, contrasts it with imperative
programming, designs and implements LispKit LISP, and adds some
interesting features (e.g. lazy evaluation, nondeterminism...)
I'd recommend that one first, followed by SICP, of course.
_Structure_and_Interpretation_of_Computer_Programs_
Abelson, Sussman, Sussman
MIT Press, 1985
ISBN: 0-262-01077-1
or
McGraw-Hill
ISBN: 0-07-000-422-6
which should be on every programmer's bookshelf (well-thumbed with
lots of bookmarks sticking out of it... ;-)

I agree wholeheartedly! This point should REALLY be stressed.
