 This section gives an informal account of some of the lexical
 conventions used in writing Scheme programs.  For a formal syntax of
 Scheme, see section  Formal syntax.
 
 Upper and lower case forms of a letter are never distinguished except
 within character and string constants.  For example, `Foo' is the same
 identifier as `FOO', and #x1AB is the same number as #X1ab.
