Quote:Of course, there is almost half a century between Lisp and Python
To clarify what ofnuts is saying (for the youth out there):
Lisp invented functional programing, code-macros, object-oriented, DSLs (via reader macros), dynamic typing, dynamic code generation, interactive coding, interactive/graphic programming environments, syntax-aware editors (and all of emacs);
But as you say, half a century later, other languages are getting there.
