This package the Gambit-C Scheme programming system. Gambit-C
includes a Scheme interpreter and a Scheme compiler which can be used
to build standalone executables. Because the compiler generates
portable C code it is fairly easy to port to any platform with a
decent C compiler.
The Gambit-C system conforms to the R4RS, R5RS and IEEE Scheme standards.
The full numeric tower is implemented, including: infinite precision
integers (bignums), rationals, inexact reals (floating point numbers),
and complex numbers. Gambit-C supports a number of extensions to the
standards. Please see the <http://gambit.uri.umontreal.ca/~gambit/wiki>
for more information: there is simply not enough room here to elaborate!
