Aren't you getting this backwards? http://www.wisdomandwonder.com/link/2110/why-mit-switched-from-scheme-to-python Dont get me wrong: Ive had more fun with scheme than any other language. [And APL for very different reasons] Its just that its 2015 now not 1985... People did not 'settle' the question: "How many angels can dance on the head of a pin". It just stopped being relevant. Likewise, which is the 'best' programming language is a question without the edge it had when I was a student -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
