@code{#lang racket
;; Finds Racket sources in all subdirs
(for ([path (in-directory)])
(when (regexp-match? #rx"[.]rkt$" path)
(printf "source file: ~a\n" path)))}
@desc{The @elemcode{in-directory} function constructs a sequence that
walks a directory tree (starting with the current directory, by default)
and generates paths in the tree. The @elemcode{for} form binds
@elemcode{p} to each path in the sequence, and @elemcode{regexp-match?}
applies a pattern to the path.})
(example ; -----------------------------------------------
@code{#lang web-server/insta
;; A "hello world" web server
(define (start request)
'(html
(body "Hello World")))}
@desc{This example implements a web server using the
@elemcode{web-server/insta} language. Each time a connection is made to
the server, the @elemcode{start} function is called to get the HTML to
send back to the client.})
(example ; -----------------------------------------------
@code{#lang racket ; An echo server
(define listener (tcp-listen 12345))
(let echo-server ()
(define-values (in out) (tcp-accept listener))
(thread (lambda () (copy-port in out)
(close-output-port out)))
(echo-server))}
@desc{Racket makes it easy to use TCP sockets and spawn threads to handle
them. This program starts a server at TCP port 12345 that echos
anything a client sends back to the client.})
(example ; -----------------------------------------------
@code{#lang racket
;; Report each unique line from stdin
(let ([saw (make-hash)])
(for ([line (in-lines)])
(unless (hash-ref saw line #f)
(displayln line))
(hash-set! saw line #t)))}
@desc{Uses a hash table to record previously seen lines. You can run this
program in DrRacket, but it makes more sense from the command line.}))

@code{#lang racket ; A picture

(let sierpinski ([n 6])
(if (zero? n)
(triangle 2 'solid 'red)
(let ([next (sierpinski (- n 1))])
(above next (beside next next)))))}
@desc{The @elemcode{2htdp/image} library provides easy-to-use functions
for constructing images, and DrRacket can display an image result as
easily as it can display a number result. In this case, a
@elemcode{sierpinski} function is defined and called (at the same time)
to generate a Sierpinski triangle of depth 6.})

@code{#lang racket/gui ; A GUI guessing game

(define ((check i) btn evt)
(message-box "." (if (= i n) "Yes" "No")))

@desc{This simple guesing game demonstates Racket's class-based GUI
toolkit. The @elemcode{frame%} class implements a top-level window, and
@elemcode{button%} obviously implements a button. The @elemcode{check}
function defined here produces an function that is used for the button's
callback action.})

@desc{Playing a game but no dice on hand? Let Racket roll for you. The
@elemcode{command-line} form makes sure that the right number of

switch.})
(example ; -----------------------------------------------
@code{#lang racket
;; Print the Greek alphabet
(for ([i (in-range 25)])
(displayln
(integer->char
(+ i (char->integer #\u3B1)))))}
@desc{The only reason we use the encoded form of a character
@elemcode{#\u3B1} instead of the more direct form @elemcode{#\α} is that
we don't trust your browser to render it correctly. DrRacket is
perfectly happy with @elemcode{#\α}.})
(graphical-example ; -------------------------------------
@code{#lang htdp/bsl ; Any key inflates the balloon

@desc{Racket's mission includes education at all levels. This program
uses the @elemcode{htdp/bsl} teaching language, the
@elemcode{2htdp/image} library for creating pictures in the teaching
languages, and the @elemcode{2htdp/universe} library for interactive
animations.})
