I learned Python long before touching anything like a lisp, and the closest thing to functional programming that I’d done before touching a lisp was R. All self-taught, usually in the service of something else I wanted to do. I have no formal training in CS. And so my use of Racket is simply as a dilettante. And I LOVE it. I have a lot of imposter syndrome and not really grokking data structures the way CS people can tell you the tradeoffs and implementation details of a B-tree. But, I LOVE coding in Racket when I get the chance. For me, it’s a language where I can jank-hack things together like Python, but having more fun. Wonder if that’s because I never had the fun of Racket sullied by also having to learn data structures and CS fundamentals at the same time?
