Isn't that like saying:
"Modern racecars are designed with high performance CAD / simulation software - race mechanic culture is therefore inseparable from this software culture" - that would be the absurdity
- coldtea 13y agoYes. From the answers above, what I've gathered is that those mathematic packages were important for the design of Lisp 3-4 decades ago. Doesn't help clarify whether current Lisp practice (as of 1 decade say), still favors mathematics as much. A similar example would be AI, which used to tightly connected with Lisp, but it's something that modern Lisp practicioners (post-AI Winter) don't care much for.
