you must know C to appreciate python and you must know assembly to appreciate C

python is nothing like lisp desu. lisp is pure freedom while python is all about muh meme pythonic, muh retarded syntax, muh libraries to do literally anything, muh forced oop
Blake Bennett
Fuck pythonic. Write how you want and it's a decent language.
Benjamin Butler
I'm not gonna fall for the python good or bad flamewar bait.
that's completely irrelevant here because either way it's nothing like lisp
Jack Cruz
Python has no macros and it has crappy lambdas. If you were to pick a mainstream scripting language that is most like lisp, I would say Ruby, because it was heavily inspired by smalltalk and lisp, with perlisms in the mix.
William Hill
It absolutely is.
The way that tables and metatables can be used to construct classes is exactly how Python implements classes with dictionaries.
Jonathan Brooks
lisp is useless, python is useful big difference.

>look bro in lisp (implementation name not mentioned) you can use this one retarded way to make a class
>wooww that's how this one python feature is implemented
>BRO THEREFORE PYTHON IS MODERN DAY LISP
what a retard kek
Gabriel Sanchez
>it's nothing like lisp
>THEREFORE PYTHON *IS* MODERN DAY LISP
>I'm the retard
Lucas Jenkins
errrrrrmmmm YIKES... that doesn't seem very pythonic to me user? i think you should really make sure theres a bit more pythonic in there, it needs to be more pythonic ... thisi s REALLY important to our project haha, you want your PR to be approved don't you user?

>one retarded way to make a class
I'm sorry, is there another way to make classes in Lisp I'm not aware of? Or are you saying classes are always retarded?

yes, look up CLOS
Evan Jackson
It has some lisp-like qualities. I don't think it can do full "let over lambda," to the extent that lisp can, but then most languages can't (and probably don't need to much of the time). That being said: pure untyped lambda calculus is the pathway to abilities that many seem to be unnatural.
Dylan Miller
All the scripting languages are mostly based on Lisp.
Aiden Martinez
Same is true for many scientific programming languages: R, Julia, & Ocaml iirc.
Nathan Sanders
Googling came up with nothing.
The official docs illustrate implementing classes with tables and metatables.
lua.org
Link me or you're full of shit.
Isaiah Reyes
I am the retard. I read Lisp as Lua
Lucas Torres
CLOS is in the standard: the macros defclass, defmethod, and defgeneric handle most of CLOS, but there's more granular stuff you can get into. This provides an overview:

Anyone who knows any assembly despises C and anyone who knows anything despises python.

lol no it don't

OCaml has a different lineage (comes from ML as the name implies). Julia is literally a frontend for femtolisp. R doesn't even remotely have anything the least bit lispy, it's even more anti-lisp than python (also hell to use for anything but plotting graphs with ggplot2).
