Re: Learning Lisp

functions on arrays/lists, Numpy like stuff. It seems to be a great fit for a lot of what I would like to do. But if native performance with numbers on arrays/lists isn't sufficient.

Floating Point numbers vs Fixpoint numbers

Re: Learning Lisp

talOcean. I think PicoLisp can be just perfect for such things. I am in Texas. Would I be correct that the optimum time is Berlin time which is currently 7 hours ahead of me? I am normally up early, so that is not a problem. I can work it in most anytime. I haven't used IRC in years. Thanks. J
