Hello
I'm a lawyer practising from a small firm in the UK. I am also a
Racket-hobbyist.
I'm writing to ask for comments, and perhaps even collaborators, regarding
a proposed project to build a case management system.

I'm considering developing a series of DSLs using Racket for use i

I noticed the separate User's Guide and Reference, and indeed that's
one reason I'm considering Racket for practical use right now.
The separation of a Guide is good for a read-through, like on the train,
when first exposed to a system. *But*, for day-

The racket documentation is organized into two documents. One that is
intended to be the useful, commonly-used bits (called the guide) and
one is intended to be comprehensive, showing every possibly knob and
button (called the reference). If you don't know about that, it can be
easy to flip into th

The library is with a problem that is when manage the * operator(greedy

empty string, that is the equivalent of a rule that always match but
without consume anything. If the term that is repeat would be other thing,

Hello *Racketeers,*
Let's organize a Scheme event at FOSDEM 2019 in Bruxelles.
I started a page on the wiki @ http://community.schemewiki.org/?FOSDEM2019
You can edit the wiki page. The goal of that page is to gather enough talk
ideas to be able to submit a proposal for a developer room at FOSD
I didn't realize (though I should have) that the comment could be taken
that way.
I realize you were not writing anything about the Turing language, but the
title of the essay triggered some memories for me of what my classmates and
later my professional colleagues used to talk about. And for
For everyone else, the essay is NOT about Turing/the language or Turing/the man
but Turing, the concept.
And because it is true that we have monopoly power over students here, not a
single required course forces students to use Racket. In our freshman course we
use the teaching languages, ex
"Turing is useless" ...
While I worked as a programmer I used to complain quite bitterly about
university comp sci departments that had NIH (not invented here) syndrome
and a captive audience.
I learned Turing as my 2nd programming language. I'm sure the only reason
it could have been taug
Perhaps object-contract?
Note that this might not return a contract, however, in which case,
the function might return anything.

Hi. I am contributing in a library that create functions to parse
PEG(parsing expression grammar). To implement a feature, I need to know the
return's type of a function. We are using racket, not typed-racket, so I
think that I need to get the contract or something like that. I dont see in
