> [I] have never seen it in practice. Understandable Lisp isn't that compact. Also, you are literally replying to a comment chain provoked by a post that argues, with code, exactly this point. The Clojure (a Lisp dialect) version has the same core logic as the Java version. The core logic is virtually inarguably just as readable as the Java version. And it is just shy of an order of magnitude fewer lines of code than the Java version. So here's an example from a real, live code base of understandable Lisp, in practice, that is 10x more compact than the Java version.
