Both of them aren't treated as well as
they could be in any text book, nor explored threaded, and programs making
use of such support would be at least mostly indistinguishable from

I'm using the SICP lectures and text to learn about Scheme on my own. I am looking at an exercise that says "An application of an expression E is an expression of the form (E E1,...En). This includes the case n=0, corresponding to an expression (E). A...

I picked up a LISP book at a garage sale the other day and was just wondering if it was worth spending some time on.

Jag tänkte ge några tips till nybörjare i programmering.
Efter att ha läst många trådar här under en tid så tyckte
jag att det behövdes. De två första tipsen är motiverade av
trådar jag sett, resten är mer allmänna tips.

That title sounds more argumentative than intended but I don't know enough Lisp to say whether its good or bad. It seems like everyone who has used Lisp loves it yet the most popular languages these days are descended from C.
So what is it about Lisp ...

Hi,
I'm starting to learn Scheme (r5rs), I have sisc, sketchy lisp and
r5rs report on my desk, but I feel that at some point a good method of
learning the language will be stydying some existing project - this is
how I learned C (C more advanced than...

There are good books to read.
But it also depends if it fits your mental.
Lisp
is one of them and is both worth learning and using it.
PS: If you think that Lisp is worth learning and using, than I would
appreciate very much if you.

If you want to learn Lisp/Scheme, read SICP.
Great idea by the way!
I know this is going to seem old-fashioned, but I don't think much of using to learn C++, read Stroustrup.
