Key differences between Racket and Swift

CharacteristicRacketSwift
SyntaxRacket has a Lisp-like syntax with a strong emphasis on parentheses and prefix notation.Swift has a C-like syntax with a more modern and concise approach.
ParadigmRacket is a multi-paradigm language that supports functional programming, imperative programming, and object-oriented programming.Swift is a multi-paradigm language that supports both object-oriented programming and functional programming.
TypingRacket is dynamically typed, meaning that variable types are checked at runtime.Swift is statically typed, meaning that variable types are checked at compile-time.
PerformanceRacket is an interpreted language, which can result in slower performance compared to compiled languages.Swift is a compiled language, which generally results in faster performance.
Libraries and frameworksRacket has a rich set of libraries and frameworks available, particularly for academic and research purposes.Swift has a growing ecosystem of libraries and frameworks, particularly for iOS and macOS development.
Community and supportRacket has a smaller community compared to some other languages, but it has dedicated support from the Racket development team.Swift has a large and active community, with support from Apple and a wide range of resources available.
Learning curveRacket has a moderate learning curve, particularly for those new to Lisp-like syntax and functional programming concepts.Swift has a relatively low learning curve, especially for those familiar with C-like syntax and object-oriented programming.
