Re: [Chicken-users] need to get started

[Pedro Henrique Antunes de Oliveira]

No "easy" tutorial on getting started with chicken (as far as I know),
but if you mean "getting started with scheme", then there are some
books: The Screme Programming Language (3ed), Structure and
Interpretation of Computer Programs, The Little Schemer, The Seasoned
Schemer.

Check out schemers.org too.

Functional programming books in general should help. Although scheme
is not purely functional, I (and most people if I am not wrong) do
mostly functional programming style.

Honnestly, since Scheme (I think this is true for any lisp language)
is pretty much multi-paradigm, once you learn the syntax and the
language features (which doesn't add up to many things in Scheme), you
can "import" good ideas from other languages into here (Structure and
Interpretation of Computer Programs should give you a very good idea
on this).

About chicken specifically, you should check the website, the user
manual. The first sections can work as some sort of introduction to
the software.
