True, lack of conciseness may not be the first thing that comes to mind when speaking about Lisps :-)
What I should have said is that I think equivalent Python code has fewer 'noise' symbols than S-expressions. Of course, that depends greatly on how the programs are structured. And, that brings us back to readability. Since this subject keeps popping up, over years and even decades, maybe there's something here that the Lisp experts don't quite understand? Maybe it has something to do with programs needing to be quickly understood, even by non-experts? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
