There are some very good Lisp systems (SBCL) with excellent compilers, rivalling C and Fortran in code quality (if you avoid common pitfalls like consing). Together with code and data being represented by the same data structure and good support of code generation by code (more so than any other language I've heard of) makes Lisp an evergreen for classical AI domains. (Of course AI is a massively parallel number-crunching application, so Lisp isn't all that helpful here). -- Eugen* Leitl <a href="http://leitl.org";>leitl</a> http://leitl.org ______________________________________________________________ ICBM: 48.07100, 11.36820 http://www.ativel.com 8B29F6BE: 099D 78BA 2FD3 B014 B08A 7779 75B0 2443 8B29 F6BE ----- This list is sponsored by AGIRI: http://www.agiri.org/email To unsubscribe or change your options, please go to: http://v2.listbox.com/member/?list_id=303
