How to use this tool?
This free online converter lets you convert code from Elm to Scheme in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -
- Type or paste your Elm 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 Elm 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.
Elm
Scheme
Example 2 - Even or Odd
A well commented function to check if a number if odd or even.

Scheme
Key differences between Elm and Scheme
Characteristic | Elm | Scheme |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Elm has a syntax similar to Haskell, with strong static typing and a focus on immutability. | Scheme has a simple and minimalistic syntax, with a focus on parentheses and prefix notation. |
Paradigm | Elm is a functional programming language that emphasizes immutability and pure functions. | Scheme is a multi-paradigm language that supports functional programming, procedural programming, and object-oriented programming. |
Typing | Elm has a strong static type system that prevents many runtime errors. | Scheme has a dynamic type system that allows for flexible and dynamic programming. |
Performance | Elm is designed for front-end web development and focuses on performance optimizations for web applications. | Scheme is a general-purpose programming language and does not have specific performance optimizations for any particular domain. |
Libraries and frameworks | Elm has a growing ecosystem of libraries and frameworks specifically designed for front-end web development. | Scheme has a smaller ecosystem of libraries and frameworks compared to Elm, but it can leverage libraries from other languages like C and Java. |
Community and support | Elm has an active and supportive community with regular updates and documentation. | Scheme has a smaller community compared to Elm, but it has a long history and is supported by various online resources and books. |
Learning curve | Elm has a relatively low learning curve, especially for developers familiar with functional programming concepts. | Scheme has a moderate learning curve, especially for developers new to functional programming and Lisp-like syntax. |
