    Better power of abstraction while providing optional type checking is also an advantage compared to Java. It can be executed both with just-in-time compilation (such as Python or Java) or from a compiled binary (it compiles to native code). It is also well-suited for small scripts. Similar to Python, Java and Go, it is also well-suited to program network applications; for example, the Hacker News (https://news.ycombinator.com) website is written in Racket. It has less supporting libraries than Python, but supports to use third-party libraries in a much more painless way.
