Many thanks will give it a good try.

So I started learning lisp to a decent beginner level a year ago. Lack of simple documentation and a window-y editor was pretty annoying. I don't like the idea of having to learn an editor where I need to first learn a "hot-key language", another programming language just so the editor doe...

Narrowed down the client code that I can use. Project feel asleep for a bit and I started messing with it again today. Got to feel really silly when I realized that not having a newline character was messing with me :lol: . import java.io.BufferedReader; import java.io.IOException; import java.io.In...

A complete unit test framework capable of accepting any type of code and testing it compared to any type of result and with well formatted output. Which isn't bad for 16 lines of code(without comments), if you printed it out a piece of paper would feel almost naked. You even get the full walk-throug...

This might suit your needs a bit: http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Playing_cards (note: lisp is lableled as "common lisp).

Pretty darn honest comparisons between languages. If I still had access to an iSeries server* I'd be tempted to add a COBOL example

*type was sever, very Freudian.

There is no such thing as "Only in X language". By default all programming languages are the same in the sense that they exist to solve problems, they're only different when you actually use them. I've picked up an interest in lisp because it offers more tools than other languages to get a...

Whoops. I'm starting to get some stuff to transfer back and forth now, actually reading the real java documentation instead copy-paste from the internet.

I'll post here again eventually with something that works how I want it to.

Should I be able to connect Sockets between two languages relatively painlessly? Basically am I missing something small or something big? Using lispworks http://www.lispworks.com/documentation/lw60/LW/html/lw-578.htm#14172 and this sample(java) http://zerioh.tripod.com/ressources/sockets.html Both a...

I turned 22 a few days ago :D I started learning Lisp because some quotes or another said I'd have a near godly revelation in time and would end up a better programmer for it :lol: I had a few interesting sparks where I saw you didn't "need" to do things that have to be done so much they'r...

Yep that would be it. Many thanks trying various combination of "list of lisp functions" and similar in search engines was an insane idea.
