What Is Lisp?
Lisp is a programming language that was created in the late 1950s. It's been used in fields such as artificial intelligence, computer science, and engineering. Lisp is mainly recognized by developers for its adaptability and power. However, it's certainly not a language for beginners as it may be difficult to understand and utilize.
Originally specified in 1958, Lisp is the second-oldest high-level programming language of Lisp family of languages which is in widespread use today. Currently, only Fortran language is older, and only by one year.
John McCarthy created Lisp while he was at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). In 1960, McCarthy published a paper entitled "Recursive Functions of Symbolic Expressions and Their Computation by Machine, Part I." It has been used as a general-purpose language since its creation. The first AI programs were written with it in the late 1950s and early 1960s.
Lisp based languages include:
- Common Lisp
- Scheme
- Clojure
- Emacs Lisp
