I talked with a /prog/rider in real-life once, and he thought ``Knights of the Lambda Calculus'' came from Lain.

The most powerful programming language is Lisp. If you don't know Lisp (or its variant, Scheme), you don't know what it means for a programming language to be powerful and elegant. Once you learn Lisp, you will understand what is lacking in most other languages.

When you start a Lisp system, it enters a read-eval-print loop. Most other languages have nothing comparable to read, nothing comparable to eval, and nothing comparable to print. What gaping deficiencies!

Lisp is no harder to understand than other languages. So if you have never learned to program, and you want to start, start with Lisp. If you learn to edit with Emacs, you can learn Lisp by writing editing commands for Emacs. You can use the Introduction to Programming in Emacs Lisp to learn with: it is free as in freedom, and you can order printed copies from the FSF.

To study Scheme, and a deep understanding of program structures using Scheme as a vehicle, I recommend Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs, by Abelson and Sussman. This too is now free as in freedom.

Problems in SICP are real problems. There's a difference between real problems and real enterprise problems. These are examples of real enterprise

problems:

1. Boss doesn't understand shit, explain why he has to turn on computer before use
2. Boss says he wants the application to optimize business profits; make up a reason why it would
3. Boss needs a new version with more features; proceed to bloat
4. Marketing dept needs 3-letter acronyms for cheap press and "white papers", come up with some
5. To ensure people keeps studying and getting certified, and the product looks to have a lot of new features, rename existing features
6. Boss said it would be ready in x days, but boss doesn't write code, you do, and it takes x * 2 days, work overnight to avoid making boss look

stupid or company losing money
