  2. Lisp (programming language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lisp_(programming_language)

    Lisp (historically LISP, an abbreviation of "list processing") is a family of programming languages with a long history and a distinctive, fully parenthesized prefix notation. [3] Originally specified in the late 1950s, it is the second-oldest high-level programming language still in common use, after Fortran.

  3. Common Lisp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Lisp

    There is also a function to evaluate Lisp code: eval. eval takes code as pre-parsed s-expressions and not, like in some other languages, as text strings. This way code can be constructed with the usual Lisp functions for constructing lists and symbols and then this code can be evaluated with the function eval.

  4. Common Lisp Object System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Lisp_Object_System

    CLOS does not by default support dispatch over all Common Lisp data types (for example dispatch does not work for fully specialized array types or for types introduced by deftype). However, most Common Lisp implementations provide a metaobject protocol which allows generic functions to provide application specific specialization and dispatch rules.

  5. CAR and CDR - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CAR_and_CDR

    Lisp was originally implemented on the IBM 704 computer, in the late 1950s.. The popular explanation that CAR and CDR stand for "Contents of the Address Register" and "Contents of the Decrement Register" [1] does not quite match the IBM 704 architecture; the IBM 704 does not have a programmer-accessible address register and the three address modification registers are called "index registers ...

  6. Locator/Identifier Separation Protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Locator/Identifier...

    A PETR is typically used when a LISP site needs to send traffic to non-LISP sites but the LISP site is connected through a service provider that does not accept nonroutable EIDs as packet sources. Proxy ITR (PITR) : A PITR is used for inter-networking between Non-LISP and LISP sites, a PITR acts like an ITR but does so on behalf of non-LISP ...

  7. Functional programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_programming

    Lisp functions were defined using Church's lambda notation, extended with a label construct to allow recursive functions. [41] Lisp first introduced many paradigmatic features of functional programming, though early Lisps were multi-paradigm languages , and incorporated support for numerous programming styles as new paradigms evolved.

  8. List of Lisp-family programming languages - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Lisp-family...

    Lisp dialect first standardized in a book, "Common Lisp the Language", by Guy L. Steele, [12] developed as a standardized and improved successor of Maclisp; statically and dynamically scoped; strongly-typed, allows (optional) type declarations; [13] separate namespaces for functions versus data variables, a trait often named Lisp-2; object ...

  9. Filter (higher-order function) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filter_(higher-order_function)

    Filter is a standard function for many programming languages, e.g., Haskell, [1] OCaml, [2] Standard ML, [3] or Erlang. [4] Common Lisp provides the functions remove-if and remove-if-not. [5] Scheme Requests for Implementation (SRFI) 1 provides an implementation of filter for the language Scheme. [6]
