Discover how Calysto Scheme, written in Continuation-Passing Style, is transformed into Python while preserving correctness. Learn about its support for standard Scheme functionality, including call/cc, syntactic extensions, and a nondeterministic operator for automatic backtracking. Understand how Calysto Scheme leverages Python libraries for machine learning and pedagogical purposes. Gain insights into its integration with the Jupyter Notebook ecosystem and its application in teaching introductory Programming Languages. Presented by James Marshall and Douglas Blank, this talk highlights Calysto Scheme's simplicity, ease of installation, and unique educational benefits.
