Yeah I went through setting up DrRacket and stuff like that when I worked through Scheme the first time around, I'll know what to show him. The Little Schemer uses functions that aren't really in Scheme, like (atom?)

 

Hi r/scheme, my little brother (11) is interested in programming. Since he doesn't know what he wants to make yet, I feel like scheme could be a good first language to learn the basics, paired with "The Little Schemer", a book I worked through when I was younger that I feel like he'd like and would teach him some solid CS foundations. Any input on this?
