For June, as part of #12in23, we're looking at languages that are dialects of Lisp. With languages ranging from 50 to 10 years old, its fascinating to see how this branch of programming has grown and evolved! Come and explore Scheme, Common Lisp, Emacs Lisp, Clojure and Racket with us!
In this video, Jeremy and Erik explore the different languages, and try to help you decide which one to try!

Lisp is so accessible that it could be introduced with primary school math. I it could be.

If only the world had tried sexps rather than XML and JSON... the amount of mental clutter avoided would have been staggering.

@georgerogers1166 9 месяцев назад

Every sufficiently sized Scheme program is an implementation of half of Racket including Racket.

@henrikorpela2818 2 месяца назад

Great stuff. I would have also liked to hear drawbacks of Lisp and its dialects. I mean, there must be reasons why the languages are not widely used in the enterprise world, for example.

@exercism_org 2 месяца назад

Lisps are pretty widely used, but definitely nowhere as near as common as other languages. A lot of it comes down to where there's been investment and/or huge players, which subsequently means investment in performance, ecosystem tooling etc. Java makes a lot of money for Oracle for example, and there is a huge industry around something like Java (think editors, training, etc). Often languages that have been around for a long time and very niche become more mainstream over time - Haskell is a good example, and maybe the resurgence of BEAM (Erlang stack too). Thanks for the comment! :)

@@exercism_org That, and it only takes one bad teacher or uptight Lisper to ruin the experience.

@ErikSchierboom 5 дней назад

Some possible reasons: - The syntax of LISPs are quite different from what most people are used to (C-family languages with curly braces and such), which makes it harder to get started for people. - The tooling around LISPs also just to be behind what other languages offered, although that is less and less of an issue these days. - Functional programming was, for a long time, quite niche

wise sage indeed, learning so much from your videos !

@elev007 Год назад

Thank you for the extensive & informative overview.

Are we gonna have an Autumn of M-exps

@encapsulatio Год назад

Hope you can make videos for APL and Forth also. Thank you!

@galenivanov5575 9 месяцев назад

It would be great to have videos for array languages - APL, J, K, Nial, BQN, Uiua...

Can you write Android apps in this language stack ?

@manemobiili 8 месяцев назад

You can write something for android with picolisp and pilbox, and i believe you could make a native app with a combination of clojure with java or kotlin. Also clojuredart and clojurescript could get you there.
