Welcome to Racket! It's a lot of fun, and there's a ton of interesting
stuff to learn about when you're ready.
I glanced at your code and it seemed very understandable. I wish my
earliest Racket code had been that good.
Whenever you feel ready to care about writing "idiomatic" Racket code,

I’m not completely sold on `most`, but I’m close. I like that it’s terse and
fairly obvious in what it does. The obvious downside is that it’s a little
vague. The expression (most < lst) doesn’t read super well, IMO.

Take a crack at it.
I am pretty sure I have introduced the proper level of representation
independence (I can hear Ben laugh all the way now — Typed Racket
doesn’t have types) and the typed documentation is pretty solid. (I’ll
do types later to validate.)

The names `first-by` and `find-first-by` both sound good to me.

Agreed, but for this reason, `find-max` and `find
That's a great name. :)

So I couldn't resist and wrote the vector-based, allocation-minimizing
version of the program. I didn't get that much of a performance gain.
I might still change the fitness representation (into a vector) or
integrate it into 'population' (where it belongs from an SE perspective).
I doubt thi

One problem with generalising find-max and find-min into a single hof is

I have finished my first "recreational programming" assignment in Racket and I

find-min and find-max are (already) good names in my opinion. They shorten
both minimum / minimal (maximum / maximal), which works for both numbers
(whence our intuition) and partial orders.
How about find-min or find-max with an optional keyword argument #:order-by
(defaulting to <)?

Ah, sorry Alex. I mean "maximal" in the sense of this wikipedia page

Hi Taro,
Probably racket/format is what you need to look at.

Hi,
Please tell me the way of the following in racket?
In C,

In Common Lisp,
