 Another good Scheme implementation is [Chicken](http://www.call-cc.org). For our purposes, this is in some respects
 superior to Racket, and in other respects inferior. If you have any issues with installing or using Racket, you could
 try this out instead. You might even want to install both.

 If any of the instructions above don't work, then you can try alternative instructions for [Mac](http://new-www.haskell.org/downloads/osx) or [Windows](http://new-www.haskell.org/downloads/windows) or [Ubuntu](http://new-www.haskell.org/downloads/linux). Note that this method doesn't install all the extensions that are part of the Haskell Platform, but only the core pieces of GHC. You can use Cabal to download and manage any extra extensions you turn out to need, down the road.
