This is mostly due to Python's "There is only one obvious way to do it" which makes reading code much simpler. On the other hand it is possible but harder to make lisp code as readable (my code became much more readable after I discovered the threading macros for instance) and often lisp is harder to read per line but does much more in that small amount of space than another language would. Same principle as yet another Java class full of getters and setters being trivial to read but not getting much done per line. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
