Kelsey, 1997 Abstract Pre-Scheme is a statically typed dialect of Scheme that gives the programmer the eciency and low-level machine access of C while retaining many of the desirable features of Scheme. The PreScheme compiler makes use of type inference, partial evaluation and Scheme and Lisp compiler technology to compile the problematic features of Scheme, such as closures, into C code without signi cant run-time overhead.
