Lisp, though, does have types.
- qwertyuiop924 10y agoAll languages have types. Lisp, however, and particularly the versions that those people worked with, are dynamically typed, like Javascript. Unlike JS, they aren't weakly typed, but that's not the point. To say nothing of Ruby and Python, for which there are also programmers on that list.
- wtbob 10y agoCommon Lisp compilers may implement static typing. The default type is T, though — but with declarations, a compiler can enforce anything the programmer declares or it infers.
