Chapter 14. Ramping Lisp Up a Notch with Functional Programming
As you’ve seen in the preceding chapters, Lisp makes it pretty easy to throw together some quick code and build some simple games in no time. However, Lisp’s main claim to fame is as an academic tool, appropriate for tackling the most complicated scientific problems. The fact that it’s also great for hacking is arguably just a side benefit.
In the rest of this book, we’re going to focus on the scientific side of the language, exploring some advanced techniques to build a more sophisticated game that I hope will really blow your mind. It will do things you may never have thought would be possible in a computer program.
In this chapter, you’re going to learn about the first advanced Lisp ...
