Ok all drama aside I can't help feeling like LISP is the best language you could have in this context because it's verbose, unambiguous, highly encapsulated and old school not to mention hardcore.
Anyone using a spreadsheet in emacs would be well versed in this sort of paradigm and I personally love lisp because it's how we cut our teeth in functional programming in university.
Not to mention it's perfectly suited to list processing..
- clauderoux 6y agoI fully agree with you. When you see how cumbersome Excel formulas can be when you want to mix different operators together, with their "(",";" and so on and so forth. I wonder how you can say that Lisp is too verbose for this task.
