How do I learn Scheme? [closed]

scheme

Hey, I'm a relative newbie to programming. I've picked up some very basic Java (File I/O, GUIs, inheritance) and would like to take a look at functional programming - in particular, I would like to learn Scheme. I'm having some trouble finding a Scheme implementation I can understand. Interpreters are weird; I'm not sure how to save my programs and create executables. I've downloaded PLT Scheme, but I would prefer using something less condescending, something similar to NetBeans. Is there a plugin or tool that will allow me to quickly and easily create and manage Scheme programs? All help is appreciated!

Is it worth to learn scheme?

It's a functional programming language and will do well broaden your experience. Even if you don't use it in the real world doesn't mean it doesn't have any value. It will help you master things like recursion and help to force you to think of problems in different ways than you normally would.

What is a learning scheme?

In their learning scheme, each of the individual behaviors tries independently to find out whether it is relevant, and what are the conditions under which it is reliable.
