yeah me too..
First i Though Jeff ment it negative, because of nil, but then I though that cant be..But indeed whats the source (or root of all causes..) of (cons nil) = nil ?


PS: I like that SpaceInvader hiding in the newlisp Banner, kazimir.. ;-)
(which could be replaced with flying Toilets from Jet Set Willy...)

PPS: Kazimir, can you remove that green vertical line from the middle of the banner?
I like them but that line is blocking the construction actualy..

Guys, your're digging too deep... No need to actually evaluate it.
'cons' means 'negative'
'nil' means 'none'

(cons nil) == "negatives--none!" or "No negatives"
...it is better to first strive for clarity and correctness and to make programs efficient only if really needed.

Text editor is Scite. It is small but customizable and export to HTML is perfect, see my blog.

:) I have no excuse for being so stupid - I never connected Lisp cons with pros and cons cons before.
