I would say PL is much easier, less cruft. Start with picolisp.com On Wed, Jun 8, 2016 at 2:08 PM, Lawrence Bottorff <borg...@gmail.com> wrote: > So, what would the best way to learn picolisp be for a total beginner? It > might seem like you should just bite the bullet and learn re

Re: Best way to learn picolisp

Best way to learn picolisp

So, what would the best way to learn picolisp be for a total beginner? It might seem like you should just bite the bullet and learn regular Common Lisp first, then start learning picolisp. That is, you should know all the capabilities of Lisp before you try to learn a derivative Lisp. Is this true
