The Strange Language

This article is about the idea of  Lisp, its origins and why it was created. We need to take into consideration that technology has changed a lot since the 1950s and every year  Moore's Law becomes more real. We come from an era where big rooms were used for a single computer up to the time where a cellphone has the same power as a computer. In this case that was the problem that McCarthy found out while developing  Lisp.   According to the reading, there are many things he needed to take into consideration while developing this language and also because he had to fight a  major programming language: C. This programming language became popular among programmers and people who use a computer but it is still difficult to use for some other things. In this case, what I am referring to is that using C as multiparadigm language and some of the characteristics that make Lisp easier to use and many people who do not program can use. In the case of the article, the objective is to

This podcast was about the way Clojure was developing. I consider that the way Rich Hickey explains it is quite simple and tries to convince the audience that this programming language and way of programming is quite good, useful and simple. In this case, he explains since the use of Lisp, and how it was really popular in the 1970s,  but as computers become more complex, could do more with less and requiring more complex programs the multiparadigm languages lost the battle. Anyway, he tries to expose the way he and the java developers try to make a great comeback with this programming language. This is due to the fact that it got advantages and some other applications among some programming languages. In this case, I can compare this programming language with Mathematica, a programming language (that people consider software to compute math problems)  that can do as much as Clojure can, but with the limitations that you should understand the way the math works and the way the comp

When someone asks why I like art and computer interest really questions whether I follow a path or another, but I really question them why I cannot follow both. Personally, I know that I following both paths is one of the best things I could do. In this case,   this is what Dick Gabriel talks about and how this has benefited him I his path of working with computer science.  He mentions that his way of living has opened his perspective in relation to the way computer science works. This is due to the fact that sometimes people have a limited perspective in a specific area and they need something different from it to really understand this and to change the way things bother. Dick also mentions the way  Lisp has changed and how people who have used it has been influenced by it. There are many other programming languages that have been influenced by the way it thinks and how it has to revolutionize computer science. Anyway, the purpose that this language was created is Artificial Inte
