Knowing that lisp is the grand-daddy of functional programming, I have been reading "on lisp" and other lisp books. I realise that most of haskells' features can be incorporated into lisp pretty easily, except for lazy evaluation.

I am not saying that the language is missing something, I am just curious of utilities that can make my programs better. 00:15:13 Do you mean "Steele"? 00:15:17 yes, 00:16:06 joe1: Your programs will get better if you read a lot of code and write code. There's a program called lisp-critic that aims to give you hints about odd style, but I don't know of any others like it. 00:16:30 Xach: thanks, that is the kind of suggestion I am looking for. 00:18:08 I think this channel is the best critic. paste your code in paste.lisp.org 00:18:22 Most modern good lisp code wouldn't pass lisp-critic. It would need a good upgrade. 00:18:39 syntard: thanks. I am about to embark on converting my haskell program to lisp. I will post it as soon as I have something. 00:19:10 joe1: One approach that can provide some "program verification" for free is DSLs. For instance, if you try to write HTML directly you could produce "", which is obviously invalid, but you can use a nice syntax where you say: (:html) and that would produce the correct thing with no possibility of closing the tag inproperly. 00:19:18 sloanr [~user@64.244.48.114] has joined #lisp 00:19:23 joe1: there's also liskell, which allow you to write haskell programs with sexps (and therefore gives you the ability to define lisp macros for your liskell code). 00:20:21 improperly* 00:20:55 pjb: i did not know that it allowed the ability to define lisp macros.
