Err, a lot of these questions are quite open in nature. I don't think anyone in software engineering has great answers - see "Everything is an Object" for Javaland and then some of the proposals in Doug Hoyte's Let Over Lambda (an excellent read if you're after Common Lisp books and recognize the high-mindedness). These topics should then probably be reframed with additional context.
I probably sound like a broken record, but I strongly feel that you should ask for examples of large projects and look for yourself to see how they're engineered. Umm, I hope that no one actually said that Lisp is the perfect language and everyone else is stupid or that OOP is useless with immutability. What are some flaws that you think Clojure has? : ) On Friday, December 27, 2013 3:24:56 PM UTC-5, Massimiliano Tomassoli wrote: > > On Friday, December 27, 2013 7:31:25 PM UTC+1, Sean Corfield wrote: >> >> I'm not sure why you are less trusting of their >> real world experiences than what your professors told you about >> (theoretical) OOP... >> > > First, someone said that OOP doesn't alleviate the problems that it's > supposed to solve and this I don't believe. > Then, someone else claimed that OOP is useless in presence of > immutability.
