Key differences between Scheme and Raku

CharacteristicSchemeRaku
SyntaxMinimalist, uses lots of parentheses, prefix notation, very regular and simple.Rich, expressive, Perl-inspired, supports multiple syntactic forms, more complex.
ParadigmPrimarily functional, supports procedural and some object-oriented features.Multi-paradigm: functional, object-oriented, concurrent, and more.
TypingDynamically typed, some implementations support optional static typing.Gradually typed, supports both dynamic and static typing.
PerformanceGenerally fast for interpreted languages, but depends on implementation.Slower than many mainstream languages, performance is improving but still a concern.
Libraries and frameworksLimited standard library, fewer third-party libraries, varies by implementation.Growing ecosystem, more libraries than Scheme, but still smaller than major languages.
Community and supportAcademic and niche community, good documentation, but smaller user base.Active and friendly community, good documentation, still relatively small.
Learning curveEasy to learn basics due to minimalism, harder for advanced topics.Steeper learning curve due to rich syntax and features.
