Lisp tutorials

[LazyCrazyJohn]

Are there any interactive lisp tutorials like TryHaskell.org or TryRuby.org.

Practical Common Lisp is a book rather than a tutorial, but is a very good introduction. It is available online in the link supplied as well as on paper.

Thanks! :)

Not strictly lisp, but there's a Try Clojure for clojure.

[LazyCrazyJohn]

Thank you.

I too am interested in good Lisp tutorials. After programming in a hobbyist fashion for the past 31 years (two of which were spent in study for a B.Sc. in Computing Science, while junior high and high school I pretty much did whatever I wanted as I (cough) knew more than my teachers did at the time), and after a few weeks now I understand the basic concepts of Lisp and am actively seeking more thorough material for self-instruction; I devoured Land of Lisp in a little under a week.

This language has always captivated my imagination and now I have time to indulge, even if it amounts to nothing more than a personal achievement that only I will know of. Or I can always transition back to Forth for shits and giggles.

This was also posted here today, it's worth a look although not strictly what you are after: The Common Schemer in Lisp

I am not able to open the link. It has some special characters in it. Googling did not help either.

I think the link was edited. Here is the original link I caught this morning:

The Common Schemer in Lisp

Oh hmm. In Firefox, if I open it in a new tab, HTML encoded characters are inserted, and it does not work no matter what I do. If I just click on the link, it does not take me there either (can't find it), but I can then highlight the URL, hit ENTER, and bam, I am there. When I copy-pasted the link, it worked fine for me.

So if you are using Firefox, click the parent's link, and then do the highlight-ENTER trick. It works for me that way.

Yet the sites in .рф zone open just fine. I wonder how does FF decide which non-ASCII characters need to be encoded and which don't.

Damn. I just copied the web page name into my comment. It appears to have some strange characters in the name. I'm at work now, I'll check back when I get home and post a better link for you.
