Lisp programmers tell themselves they are more productive and generate fewer bugs.
- erlanger 17y agoYou must not be familiar with this study. http://www.flownet.com/gat/papers/lisp-java.pdf http://www.flownet.com/gat/papers/lisp-java.pdf
- nvoorhies 17y agoA sample composed of volunteers from a particular usenet group doesn't seem like it would have people of equal skill in each of the languages in question, however. I'd expect that you'd get a different language winning in each newsgroup you sampled from.
- WilliamLP 17y agoIs that study a joke? Do you really take it seriously?
- erlanger 17y agoNo, but when people bring up "C vs Lisp" or "Java vs Lisp" it comes up. I don't give it much due however.
