"update", "put" are already available in Erlang[0] and work with nested records[1] if I understand correctly. Likewise, it seems that LFE has map-update for the same use cases[2]. [0] http://erlang.org/do

I am saying that I have been nerd sniped. Actually I tend do stay away from regexes.

Nice bug. I tried to replicate this and indeed, the time to notice that no match is found is growing very fast with the length of the input. Using a substring check is a good fix, but I tried to change the regex to fix this and: if instead

The macro is documented here: http://weitz.de/cl-who/#syntax In particular, each list beginning with a keyword is transformed into an (X)HTML tag. It is an easy way to handle all current and future HTML elements withou

This is more related to a mindset than a list of features. By the way, "modern" and "new" have different meanings[0]. Even if a good deal of features from Lisp are incorporated in newer languages, what makes Lisp interes

Looking at the artist's webpage[0], you can find videos[1] of the work as well as different angles. The before/after effect does look fake, though. I think you are right that the before picture is the one being photoshopped. [0]

Take C: struct { int x; } ...; int foo () { return 0; } Should braces in both cases represent the same internal data structures? Probably not, the first one is for structure members and the other one f

You are right about Scheme. Note that Carp, like Clojure, treats brackets as arrays ( https://github.com/eriksvedang/Carp/blob/master/src/reader.c... ).

by junke 10y ago
It is homoiconic, because the data structures used to describe code are also data structure provided by the language. However, brackets mean that you pass arguments as arrays instead of lists: there is little reason except aesthetics to hav

Is there an explanation of the memory allocation used? There seem to be a GC ( https://github.com/eriksvedang/Carp/blob/master/src/gc.c ), maybe used in the compiler only, coupled with lifetime analy

I agree with the tooling part. I tend to prefer the functional version to threading because (1) honestly, like fluent interfaces, it seems overused (2) function application is damn easy to read and (3) as soon as you have as many nested ope

In case you want to work on that, be sure to define how quote and eval work with respect to the lexical environment.

I am sympathetic to the idea that compilers should bend for developers and that's partly why I love Lisp. Your new syntax has to be learnt by the compiler and that does not scale necessarily well. The regularity of Lisp's syntax
