About Racket
Racket is a multi-paradigm programming language with a rich set
of libraries included.
The programming language is known for its powerful macro system which enables
the creation of embedded and domain-specific languages, language constructs
such as classes or modules, and separate dialects of Racket enable different
semantics.
DrRacket is a graphical environment for developing programs using the Racket programming languages.
