Three reasons. First, "code density", that is the number of (/ number-of-lines-of-code number-of-lines-on-screen) should approach 1 so that every line on the screen is code.
Second, real editors paren-bounce to show matching parens. Third, "real lispers" don't exit the thought process until the s-expression is complete :-) Tim Daly michele wrote:
Wouldn't that make it easier to keep track of them. Example: (defn myfn-a [a b] (if (zero? b) a (recur (afn (bfn (...)) a) (dec b)))) (defn myfn-b [a b] (if (zero? b) a (recur (afn (bfn (...)) a) (dec b) ) ) )
