How to use this tool?
This free online converter lets you convert code from Clojure to Scheme in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -
- Type or paste your Clojure code in the input box.
- Click the convert button.
- The resulting Scheme code from the conversion will be displayed in the output box.
Examples
The following are examples of code conversion from Clojure to Scheme using this converter. Note that you may not always get the same code since it is generated by an AI language model which is not 100% deterministic and gets updated from time to time.
Example 1 - Is String Palindrome
Program that checks if a string is a palindrome or not.
Clojure
Scheme
Example 2 - Even or Odd
A well commented function to check if a number if odd or even.
Clojure
Scheme
Key differences between Clojure and Scheme
Characteristic | Clojure | Scheme |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Clojure has a Lisp-like syntax with a focus on simplicity and immutability. | Scheme also has a Lisp-like syntax but allows more flexibility and customization. |
Paradigm | Clojure is a functional programming language that emphasizes immutability and concurrency. | Scheme is a multi-paradigm language that supports functional, procedural, and object-oriented programming. |
Typing | Clojure is dynamically typed, allowing for flexible and expressive code. | Scheme is dynamically typed, providing flexibility but potentially sacrificing some performance. |
Performance | Clojure is known for its excellent performance due to its emphasis on immutability and efficient data structures. | Scheme's performance can vary depending on the implementation, but it generally performs well for most tasks. |
Libraries and frameworks | Clojure has a growing ecosystem of libraries and frameworks, including popular ones like Ring and Compojure. | Scheme has a smaller ecosystem of libraries and frameworks compared to Clojure, but it still has some useful ones like SRFI libraries. |
Community and support | Clojure has a vibrant and active community with strong support from its creator, Rich Hickey. | Scheme also has a dedicated community, but it may not be as large or active as Clojure's community. |
Learning curve | Clojure has a moderate learning curve, especially for developers new to Lisp-like languages. | Scheme has a relatively steep learning curve, especially for developers new to functional programming and Lisp-like syntax. |
