Write Yourself a Scheme in 48 Hours
by Jonathan Tang
Publisher: Wikibooks 2007
Number of pages: 138
Description:
You'll start off with command-line arguments and parsing, and progress to writing a fully-functional Scheme interpreter that implements a good-sized subset of R5RS Scheme. Along the way, you'll learn Haskell's I/O, mutable state, dynamic typing, error handling, and parsing features. By the time you finish, you should be fairly fluent in both Haskell and Scheme.
