- sfamiliar 18y agolisp was introduced to me as follows: Lots of Irritating Superfluous Paraentheses also: most game boy games were written in lisp. true story.
- qwph 18y agoI think you might be confused about the GameBoy, but lisp has been used for game development... http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?LispInJakAndDaxter http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?LispInJakAndDaxter
- jimbokun 18y agoInteresting how the Clojure talk came as the culmination of the day's talks. Sounds like the Common Lisp people might be giving Clojure a serious look.
- jon_dahl 18y agoDefinitely interesting. So far, I've used Lisp more as a teaching tool (e.g. SICP, Little Schemer) than a production language. Not that it isn't production worthy, but I hear such mixed things about every dialect that I've yet to commit to one. So as an outsider, Clojure sounds compelling.
- DenisM 18y agoYeh, balkanization of LISP is one thing that keeps me from engaging. I'm more willing to try out haskell (http://learnyouahaskell.com http://learnyouahaskell.com) or F# for that reason.
