Fascinating read. I almost passed up on this article. Python’s eval() function reminds me almost of Lisp’s eval/apply feature, which is supposedly at the heart of what makes Lisp so special. I imagined building a program, that I could teach, to eventually write its own programs. But, I figured I would output it to a separate file, and run that file instead.
