[plt-scheme] DrScheme: Reference to undefined identifier: require
Hey Daniel!
The problem is 'require' isn't part of the R5RS language, so when you
try to use it in that language you're going to get an error. You could
use load, but that has slightly different behavior.
Is there particular reason why you'd like to use r5rs? If not, I'd
recommend you use PLT Scheme by selecting 'module' from the pulldown
and putting '#lang scheme' at the top of your file.
Hope that helps,
Zane
