- codygman 11y agoDoes it need to blend? Were Racket the only supported scripting language for Oculus I'm sure people would just learn Racket rather than skipping out on Oculus.
- sklogic 11y agoNo need to learn Racket, it's easy to build any language on top of it. Having a single meta-language as a base allows diversity and choice for end users that is not possible with any of the inferior (non-meta) languages.
- p4bl0 11y agoAs sklogic said, no need to learn Racket: It has multiple Lipsy dialects: http://docs.racket-lang.org/guide/dialects.html http://docs.racket-lang.org/guide/dialects.html And a datalog one: http://docs.racket-lang.org/datalog/index.html http://docs.racket-lang.org/datalog/index.html It knows C: http://pkg-build.racket-lang.org/doc/c/index.html http://pkg-build.racket-lang.org/doc/c/index.html And Javascript: https://github.com/lwhjp/ecmascript https://github.com/lwhjp/ecmascript And Algol: http://docs.racket-lang.org/algol60/index.html http://docs.racket-lang.org/algol60/index.html And Pascal: https://github.com/soegaard/minipascal https://github.com/soegaard/minipascal It shouldn't be too difficult to teach it Lua ;).
