This free online converter lets you convert code from Kotlin to Racket in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -

  1. Type or paste your Kotlin code in the input box.
  2. Click the convert button.
  3. The resulting Racket code from the conversion will be displayed in the output box.

Examples

The following are examples of code conversion from Kotlin to Racket 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.

Key differences between Kotlin and Racket

CharacteristicKotlinRacket
SyntaxKotlin has a syntax similar to Java, making it easy for Java developers to transition to Kotlin.Racket has a unique syntax that is based on Lisp, which may require some learning for developers unfamiliar with Lisp-like languages.
ParadigmKotlin is a statically-typed programming language that supports both object-oriented and functional programming paradigms.Racket is a dynamically-typed programming language that is primarily used for functional programming.
TypingKotlin is statically-typed, which means that type checking is done at compile-time.Racket is dynamically-typed, which means that type checking is done at runtime.
PerformanceKotlin is designed to have similar performance to Java, as it can be compiled to Java bytecode.Racket is an interpreted language, which may result in slower performance compared to compiled languages like Kotlin.
Libraries and frameworksKotlin has a growing ecosystem of libraries and frameworks, including popular ones like Spring and Android.Racket has a smaller ecosystem of libraries and frameworks compared to Kotlin, but it has a strong focus on language-oriented programming.
Community and supportKotlin has a large and active community, with good support from JetBrains, the company behind Kotlin.Racket has a smaller community compared to Kotlin, but it has dedicated support from the Racket development team.
Learning curveKotlin has a relatively low learning curve, especially for developers familiar with Java.Racket may have a steeper learning curve, especially for developers who are new to Lisp-like languages.
