Is Lisp harder than C++?

Definitely not, I found Lisp to be much easier than Java and C++ and very suitable for complete beginners as well, for the following reasons: -Lisp has minimal syntax, your program is just made up of the fundamental lisp data structure, the list which is just 2 parenthesis and stuff in between.

Why do people love lisps?

Lisp is a beautiful idea, something pure and all powerful, not arbitrary like all other programming languages. The actual functions in a Lisp and their names are a pragmatic choice, not intrinsic to the language itself. Various dialects of Lisp included different ones. Eventually Common Lisp was created and accepted.

Which programming language is best for deep learning?

Python leads the pack, with 57\% of data scientists and machine learning developers using it and 33\% prioritising it for development. Little wonder, given all the evolution in the deep learning Python frameworks over the past 2 years, including the release of TensorFlow and a wide selection of other libraries.

Is it worth learning Common Lisp?

Lisp is perhaps the most effective language. ESR says[1]: [LISP is worth learning for] the profound enlightenment experience you will have when you finally get it. That experience will make you a better programmer for the rest of your days, even if you never actually use LISP itself a lot.

Why should I learn Lisp?

First, most of you reading this probably have not heard of Lisp or even knew of its existence. This is most probably due to the fact that Lisp has a steep learning cure. Like, REALLY STEEP. Many programmers who take up Lisp end up pulling out copious amounts of beard and head hair. Even fewer programmers truly master Lisp.

Is there a high level Lisp coding course?

Few schools, teach Lisp and of those that do, even fewer teach a high level Lisp coding course.

What are the most popular general purpose programming languages?

Java is another general purpose language that is most popular due to its use in the Android operating system. It is interesting because it is specifically designed to have as few implementation dependencies as it can possible have.

What programming languages do hackers need to know?

While it is always useful to know as many programming languages as possible, understanding the strengths and uses of each language is just as important. There are typically five main languages that are most helpful for hackers to know. C and C++ are probably the most powerful low level languages at the disposal of programers today.
