You seem to be under the impression I haven't programmed in Lispy languages. And our data are from students using DrRacket, which very much has paredit support. These are just inconvenient truths.

- skrishnamurthi 13y agoOur studies were on students using Beginning Student Language, the smallest of the languages built into DrRacket. It is much smaller than the Scheme used in SICP.
