Key differences between Racket and C

CharacteristicRacketC
SyntaxRacket has a Lisp-like syntax with a strong emphasis on parentheses and prefix notation.C has a syntax that is more similar to traditional programming languages, with a focus on semicolons and curly braces.
ParadigmRacket is a multi-paradigm language that supports functional programming, imperative programming, and object-oriented programming.C is primarily an imperative programming language, although it does support some procedural and object-oriented features.
TypingRacket is a dynamically typed language, meaning that variable types are determined at runtime.C is a statically typed language, meaning that variable types are determined at compile time.
PerformanceRacket is a high-level language that prioritizes expressiveness and ease of use over raw performance.C is a low-level language that prioritizes performance and efficiency, allowing for direct memory manipulation.
Libraries and frameworksRacket has a rich set of libraries and frameworks available, particularly for academic and research purposes.C has a wide range of libraries and frameworks available, covering a broad range of applications and industries.
Community and supportRacket has a smaller but dedicated community, with strong support from the language developers and active online forums.C has a large and established community, with extensive documentation, online resources, and support from various organizations.
Learning curveRacket has a relatively steep learning curve, particularly for beginners due to its Lisp-like syntax and functional programming concepts.C has a moderate learning curve, with a syntax that is more approachable for beginners and a focus on procedural programming.
