Maybe I am stupid but what's the point in reimplementing lisp in lambda? Just to prove how beautiful simple lambda calculus is? The lambda functionality is allready in lisp. And lisp is beautiful simple!
() is nothing and (is something)
What does the implementation show more beautiful than that?
- tromp 4y agoBinary Lambda Calculus is indeed beautifully simple [1]. LISP is rather complex by comparison, but then it's full-fledged non-esoteric programming language. [1] https://www.ioccc.org/2012/tromp/hint.html https://www.ioccc.org/2012/tromp/hint.html
