Thank you :)

I remenber I am french lol and I thaught of looking in french tutorial, in fact there is a lot !

I am looking for drawing and graphics  because the quarantine my son son 8 ans old has some maths to do. On w10 scheme seems the best integrated  in texmacs ?

I could use geogebra sagemath but I like texmacs for the nice presentation and I would like to do a kind of tutorial for CE1 kids (8ans) and upper. Not only in maths but in french and others languages (chinese my wife being).

Thank you all for your good help, it's important to not feel alone in these moments

best

Henri

There is documentation in the manual about scheme:

Help -> Scheme extensions -> Overview of the scheme extension language.

For general knowledge about the language you can read any tutorial, there are many here:

Two tutorials which I liked are

http://ds26gte.github.io/tyscheme/index.html

and

http://www.shido.info/lisp/idx_scm_e.html

(the last one seems simpler to me).


The reference to Guile (the implementation of Scheme use by TeXmacs) is

https://www.gnu.org/software/guile/docs/docs-1.8/guile-ref/

and one could use as well references to other implementations as one could find some of the descriptions easier to follow (but one has to keep in mind that the details, e.g. which functions are defined, are different)

MIT Scheme:

https://groups.csail.mit.edu/mac/ftpdir/scheme-7.4/doc-html/scheme_toc.html

Racket:

https://docs.racket-lang.org/

I have a quite rough knowledge of the language, but I start "feeling" that the way to use it is through function composition, not through a sequence of instructions (like one does in Fortran for example). It "feels" like building "things" with "objects" that become more complex (inside) as the work goes on but nevertheless "fit together".

But maybe it is just my imagination ;-)
