LISP for Not Yet Techies

"Computer Careers: Using This Programming Language That is Great for Symbol Manipulation"

by Richard Stooker, President Info Ring Press and author of Secrets of Changing to a Computer Career

  

LISP is a computer programming language created in 1959 by John McCarthy. LISP is short for List Processing, and was invented to deal with symbol manipulation, easily working with data strings.

Because of its interactive nature and its ability to compute with symbolic expressions rather than numbers, it is used to program "intelligent" computers for the investigation of Artificial Intelligence / AI.

LISP uses built-in procedures called primitives

Its prompt is an asterisk.

The version still in great use today is Common LISP. The CLOS / Common L*sp Object System has been added to give it object oriented programming capability.
