The Roots Of Lisp
The article tries to explain us, as the previous readings the advantages of Lisp over other programming languages. The author explains how Lisp was created, the “idea behind the development of Lisp”. Also, the author argues how and why it’s so different to program in Lisp than in other languages. The author, divides the types of programming in two different fields, and puts as their principal exponents C and Lisp. He defines the C model as the most popular model, but he also argues that this kind of languages and their development hasn’t been evolving fast enough. It uses the example of the garbage collector to support this. In other hand, the author expose how Lisp have certain advantages as the capability to write programs to write another program. Later the reading explores more the similarities between Lisp and Clojure (operators) and functions. The reading exposes how most of the functions and functionality of Lisp are still used by other languages, and this means...
