rolls eyes
Not German, Clojure. Clojure is pretty easy.
- lispm 10y agoReally? You must be really good at Clojure. Then you can explain this: user=> (list 1 2 3) (1 2 3) user=> (list? (list 1 2 3)) true so (1 2 3) is a list. user=> (cons 0 (list 1 2 3)) (0 1 2 3) user=> (list? (cons 0 (list 1 2 3))) false (0 1 2 3) is not a list? user=> (list? '(0 1 2 3)) true But then it is??? WTF? Compare ELISP: ELISP> (listp (list 1 2 3)) t ELISP> (listp (cons 0 (list 1 2 3))) t and CL: CL-USER> (listp (list 1 2 3)) T CL-USER> (listp (cons 0 (list 1 2 3))) T
- qwertyuiop924 10y agoThat's pretty screwed up, but having brain-damged function naming doesn't mean it's not lisp. And a few odd corners does not illegability make.
- kazinator 10y agoTry TXR Lisp; you will be charmed. http://www.nongnu.org/txr http://www.nongnu.org/txr
- qwertyuiop924 10y agoThanks kaz, but I've already got the manpage bookmarked. I haven't looked at it in-depth yet, but it seems to be awk, but better, which is pretty awesome.
- kazinator 10y agoYou can also completely ignore the "awk-but-different" TXR pattern-based extraction language, and just use it as a Lisp, too. The REPL is nothing but Lisp, and code stored in ".tl" files is treated as Lisp. TXR Lisp is designed to be a nice Lisp dialect on its own, not to just fill in the gaps in another language.
- qwertyuiop924 10y agoWell, yeah, but why have one awesome thing when you can have two? I have to finish reading the docs, so I know how it works, though.
