How to use this tool?
This free online converter lets you convert code from Scheme to C in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -
- Type or paste your Scheme code in the input box.
- Click the convert button.
- The resulting C code from the conversion will be displayed in the output box.
Examples
The following are examples of code conversion from Scheme to C 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.
Scheme
C
Example 2 - Even or Odd
A well commented function to check if a number if odd or even.

Key differences between Scheme and C
Characteristic | Scheme | C |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Scheme has a simple and minimalist syntax with a heavy use of parentheses for function calls and expressions. | C has a more complex syntax with a combination of keywords, operators, and punctuation symbols. |
Paradigm | Scheme is a functional programming language that supports procedural and object-oriented programming paradigms. | C is an imperative programming language that supports procedural programming paradigm. |
Typing | Scheme is dynamically typed, meaning variable types are determined at runtime. | C is statically typed, meaning variable types are determined at compile time. |
Performance | Scheme is generally slower than C due to its interpreted nature. | C is a compiled language and generally offers better performance than Scheme. |
Libraries and frameworks | Scheme has a smaller ecosystem of libraries and frameworks compared to C. | C has a wide range of libraries and frameworks available for various purposes. |
Community and support | Scheme has a smaller community and less support compared to C. | C has a large and active community with extensive support. |
Learning curve | Scheme has a steep learning curve due to its unique syntax and functional programming concepts. | C has a moderate learning curve, especially for beginners with no prior programming experience. |
