Key differences between C and Scheme

CharacteristicCScheme
SyntaxC uses a procedural syntax with curly braces and semicolons to denote blocks and statements.Scheme uses a minimalist syntax with parentheses to denote expressions and function calls.
ParadigmC is primarily an imperative and procedural language.Scheme is a functional programming language with support for imperative and procedural programming.
TypingC is a statically typed language with weak typing.Scheme is a dynamically typed language with strong typing.
PerformanceC is known for its high performance and efficiency.Scheme is generally slower than C due to its dynamic nature and garbage collection.
Libraries and frameworksC has a wide range of libraries and frameworks available for various purposes.Scheme has a smaller ecosystem of libraries and frameworks compared to C.
Community and supportC has a large and active community with extensive support and resources.Scheme has a smaller community compared to C, but still has dedicated users and resources.
Learning curveC has a moderate learning curve, especially for beginners.Scheme has a steep learning curve, especially for those new to functional programming.
