That title though :-P Wish they'd gone with something like (define Risp (in Rust Lisp)) IMHO

- dgb23 5y agoInterestingly the title illustrates the big tradeoff in lisp notation. It doesn't read like English sentences from left to right, but is a tree data structure. This has upsides and downsides. Rust for example reads much more like a sequential sentences with the dot notation to chain methods and trait implementations and the like. Luckily for example in Clojure we use let bindings and threading macros (-> and ->>) to express the sequentiality of code more clearly. But it takes some time to get used to Lisp syntax in general.
