Human Folly about “looping”

index

• For (docs.racket-lang.org):

  #Racket has its own #looping construct (time (for ([j 100000]) (for/sum ([i 10001]) i))) at the same speed as named let.

• SRFI (docs.racket-lang.org):

  To use #SRFI 42 for #looping in #Racket you (require srfi/42). Then you can (list-ec (: i 5) (* i i)) and get a list of squares, but it takes twice as long as it should.

• SRFI (srfi.schemers.org):

  The most widely supported #looping construct in #Scheme is #SRFI 42.

• Loop (ccs.neu.edu):

  Olin Shivers’s apparently unimplemented proposal from ICFP 02005 of a #looping macro for #Scheme. Seems a lot like Haskell do-notation.
