[racket] learn racket in 10 minutes

I didn't realize Racket had "unless" already... I will change it to while.

Adam has put the Racket version online: http://learnxinyminutes.com/
But the syntax highlighting is wrong, it seems to be for Scheme rather than
Racket
There is syntax highlighting for Racket on Github, am I right ? ... I will
chase that up with Adam

In any case, any further suggestions are welcome...
whether it be Racket code or text (motivating the use of Racket or
explaining its constructs)

Thanks

R
