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

Key differences between Pascal and Scheme
Characteristic | Pascal | Scheme |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Pascal has a more structured and verbose syntax, with strict rules for indentation and punctuation. | Scheme has a minimalist syntax, with a focus on parentheses and prefix notation. |
Paradigm | Pascal is primarily an imperative and procedural language, with support for structured programming. | Scheme is a functional programming language, emphasizing the use of functions and recursion. |
Typing | Pascal has static typing, meaning that variable types are checked at compile-time. | Scheme has dynamic typing, allowing for more flexibility but potentially leading to runtime errors. |
Performance | Pascal is known for its efficiency and can produce highly optimized code. | Scheme prioritizes simplicity and expressiveness over performance, resulting in slower execution. |
Libraries and frameworks | Pascal has a smaller ecosystem of libraries and frameworks compared to other languages. | Scheme has a limited number of libraries and frameworks available, but it can easily interface with libraries written in other languages. |
Community and support | Pascal has a smaller community compared to more popular languages, but it still has active forums and resources. | Scheme has a niche community, but it is known for its academic and research-oriented support. |
Learning curve | Pascal has a relatively low learning curve, with clear syntax and a focus on structured programming principles. | Scheme has a steeper learning curve, especially for those unfamiliar with functional programming concepts and Lisp-like syntax. |
