Racket draws both from its heritage in [[:Category:Lisp|Lisp]] and [[:Category:Scheme|Scheme]] in addition to other languages such as [[:Category:Eiffel|Eiffel]].
Racket provides [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Higher-order_programming higher-order] [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design_by_contract software contracts] and [[:Category:Typed_Racket|Typed Racket]] extends this to provide safe [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gradual_typing gradual typing].
The main [[RacketCS]] implementation is [[:Category:Execution method/Compiled|compiled]] to [[:Category:Execution method/Compiled/Machine code|machine code]].
