common-lisp

Does anyone could tell something about these file? As I know: 1. Common-Lisp and Scheme are both some lisp programming langue. 2. common-Lisp source file *.lisp can be compiled into binary file *.fasl which can be load faster than the source file.

Q:Can the Scheme source code *.scm be compiled into some binary file that will be load faster than the source code?

Thanks in advance

Does R6RS or Chez Scheme v7.9.4 have a library function to check if a list contains duplicate elements? Alternatively, do either have any built in functionality for sets (which dis-allow duplicate elements)? So far, I've only been able to find an example here. The problem with that is that it doesn't… >>> More
