Line 86: I have been unable to document the claim that [[scheme]] is in some way indebted to the [[actor model]] (I have two refereneces Kent Dybvig's book and Abelson and Sussman. I find the claim strange, since I have used scheme and T and recognize its heritage, but the actor model I didn't think was one of the predecessors, particularly of such prominence. I will believe the claim, however, if someone provides a reference. --[[User:CSTAR\|CSTAR]] 21:19, 10 July 2005 (UTC) ''The review paper [http://www.dreamsongs.com/NewFiles/HOPL2-Uncut.pdf The Evolution of Lisp] by [[Guy L. Steele, Jr.]] himself and [[Richard P. Gabriel]] claims'' : ''The dialect of Lisp known as Scheme was originally an attempt by Gerald Jay Sussman and Steele during Autumn 1975 to explicate for themselves some aspects of Carl Hewitt's theory of actors as a model of computation.''
