Thanks for all of those links, but I've read them already! :) I'm aware that it's not CLISP or Scheme. That's why I'm attracted to it. I can't stand CLISP's bloat. I was able to define an anaphoric if like this: (define-macro (aif) (let ((it (eval (args 0)))) (if it (eval (args 1)) (eval (args 2))))...

That's some nice code. However, I'm failing when trying to use it to write another macro based on it: (define-macro (alambda) (labels ((self (args 0) (1 args))) self)) (setf 'a (alambda (n) (if (= n 0) 1 (* n (self (- n 1)))))) (println (a 5)) I'm getting these errors: ERR: symbol is protected in fu...

Hi all,

Wondering if there's an equivalent to flet or labels in newLISP. I don't see any in the docs. There might be a way to hack it together with letex and lambda, but I'm not sure.

Any help?

Thanks.

Hello all,

I've been playing around with newLISP on my Raspberry Pi, and I whipped up a quick library to interface with the GPIO pins.

It's available here in case anyone's interested: https://github.com/gatesphere/raspi-gpio-newlisp

Man this language is sexy.

Thanks so much for this! It makes a lot of sense. And it seems to be correct, based on the following experiment:

Thanks cormullion. I had found Kazimir's example prior to the (sum) example. I understand Kazimir's function. I'm having a hard time understanding either (sum) or the (changeme) that you introduced... Is there any way you could walk me through what happens? Thanks. EDIT: Okay, I understand (changeme...

Hello all... So I came across this example function in the Code Patterns guide. I'm new to newlisp, so this code is confusing me. How does this function have memory? (define (sum (x 0)) (inc 0 x)) I understand that (x 0) means that 0 is a default value for x, what I'm not understanding is why does s...
