What's the best way to learn LISP? [closed]

Answer 1

I found reading the book SICP really helped me learn. I used Steel Bank Common Lisp (SBCL) and had good success with it.

Good luck

Answer 2

Try reading Practical Common Lisp, by Peter Seibel.

Answer 3

Ansi Common Lisp by Paul Graham is a good book.

I think it might be out of print, so your best bet to get it via Amazon. I got the book for a "Natural Language Processing" class I took my sophomore year in college. We had to write the programing projects in LISP, and so I needed to learn Lisp quickly.

The book helped me quite a bit.

Answer 4

Berkeley offers CS61a in podcast format. This is an intro to CS class based around SICP. It's a more modern version than the 1982 videos MIT has available.
