Hi Raghav! > I would like to learn programming starting with LISP
Great! Lisp is probably the best language to start with! Lisp books also rank among the best introductory materials to programming. I highly recommend these two: - Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs (often called SICP) This uses a dialect of scheme, so you can do the exercises without much translation using guile or racket. It touches on many aspects of computer science and I think is closest to the swiss-army knife you deacribed. There are also excellent lectures freely available on YouTube by the authors. - Land of Lisp This is an introduction to Common Lisp. I am less familiar with it, but it always comes highly recommended as a fun introduction to programming by writing simple games. If I’m not mistaken, it may be a little more pragmatic than SICP. Hope that helps and happy hacking! - John
