I do not know LISP. Any UD code written in Fortran?
Ronald
Very good book to learn LISP is
http://mitpress.mit.edu/sicp/full-text/book/book.html
Just click Next page, read and so on. By the way, List is much nicer
than Fortran. I have learned Lisp after Fortran - C - C++ and I should
say that I love Lisp (well, I prefer Mathematica - it is a Lisp with a
human face). Yet, the real programmer must start with Lisp. If she will
be scared by too many brackets, for example
(define (fast-expt b n)
(cond ((= n 0) 1)
((even? n) (square (fast-expt b (/ n 2))))
(else (* b (fast-expt b (- n 1))))))
then she should forget about programming.
