[Chicken-users] Scheme code to be read

2010-08-18 Thread Christiano F. Haesbaert
Hi there,

I'm in the point that I can code most stuff in scheme, but I do it
poorly mainly cause I'm not familiar with the basic SRFIs, the
language itself and good scheme practices, read: I do not know the
scheme coding *culture*.

Far too many times I ended up coding something which already existed,
or doing something really stupid (that worked).

Can you guys point me to some good scheme code ?
I believe this is the only way to learn.

Thanks.

From time to time I download egg sources and study them. It has proven
very instructive.

You might be interested in Programming Praxis http://programmingpraxis.com,
which features Scheme code twice a week.

That's indeed a good idea (as long as the eggs are not mine).

You can use chicken-install to download eggs source:

   $ chicken-install -r egg-name

Or check out the svn repository for eggs (see http://code.call-cc.org).

Best wishes.
