Larceny (Scheme implementation)

Larceny is an implementation of the Scheme programming language built around the Twobit optimizing compiler.[1][2] Larceny offers several back-ends able to target native x86 and ARMv7 code.[3] Petit Larceny is also available and emits C source code, which can then be further compiled to native code with an ordinary C compiler.[4]
