<h3>Doggerel</h3>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Scheme seems to inspire more than its fair share of doggerel. Like
|
||
|
|
many Scheme programs themselves, these works are brief but passionate.
|
||
|
|
They are also, unlike so many pieces that involve C or Unix or
|
||
|
|
networks, upbeat and positive; don't come here to find laments about
|
||
|
|
core dumps. Here are some examples:

<h3>Of Machines and Monsters</h3>

<p>

The folks at Helsinki University of Technology have created a <a
|
||
|
|
href="http://www.niksula.cs.hut.fi/~jwallen/scheme/members.html">Schememonster</a>
|
||
|
|
to follow Alan Perlis's exhortation to ``keep fun in computing''.

Oh yeah, did we mention the <a

|
||
|
|
Machine</a>?
