R6RS introduces numerous significant changes to the language.<ref name="r6rs_Language_changes">{{Cite web |date=2007-09-26 |title=Revised^6 Report on the Algorithmic Language Scheme, Appendix E: language changes |url=http://www.r6rs.org/final/html/r6rs/r6rs-Z-H-19.html#node_chap_E |access-date=2009-10-20 |publisher=Scheme Steering Committee}}</ref> The source code is now specified in [[Unicode]], and a large subset of Unicode characters may now appear in Scheme symbols and [[identifier]]s, and there are other minor changes to the lexical rules. Character data is also now specified in Unicode. Many standard procedures have been moved to the new standard libraries, which themselves form a large expansion of the standard, containing procedures and syntactic forms that were formerly not part of the standard. A new module system has been introduced, and systems for exception handling are now standardized. Syntax-rules has been replaced with a more expressive syntactic abstraction facility (syntax-case) which allows the use of all of Scheme at macro expansion time. Compliant implementations are now ''required'' to support Scheme's full [[Numerical tower|numeric tower]], and the semantics of numbers have been expanded, mainly in the direction of support for the [[IEEE 754-1985|IEEE 754]] standard for floating point numerical representation.
