Lisp

This Programming Language resource is a "stub". Learn how you can help Wikiversity to develop it.

Lisp is a multi-paradigm language and the most innovative. It is the most accepting and flexible language of them all. It is the basis for good computer logic. C, C++, and Java are either ugly or verbose. Lisp provides elegant, terse code in which you can bend the language to your own will.

Prerequisites[edit | edit source]

Lisp teaches the logic of computers to novices so when they veer off to an ugly language they can write good code.

Course Description[edit | edit source]

Struct (the master of OOP)
Functions
Assignment
