I have a pet project I work on, every now and then. CNoEvil.
The concept is simple enough.
What if, for a moment, we forgot all the rules we know. That we ignore every good idea, and accept all the terrible ones. That nothing is off limits. Can we turn C into a new language? Can we do what Lisp and Forth let the over-eager programmer do, but in C?

| ;; Why is Lisp so great? or Why so many parenthesis? | |
| ;; The funny thing about Lisp is that everybody asks why it has so may parenthesis. Quite a few friends of mine who have studied Lisp in college don’t like it that much. I couldn’t really understand why, until I realized they usually take a class that uses the book Concepts of Programming Languages by Robert W. Sebesta as a textbook. I’m in no position to review this book because I haven’t read it. But from what I’ve skimmed, Lisp is not very well represented in this book, to put it very nicely. He describes Lisp only as a functional programming language, tells a little bit about cons cells, and that’s pretty much it! No object orientation in lisp, no syntactic abstraction, no meta-programming, and so on. My feeling is that if I didn’t know Lisp and read this book I wouldn’t be very impressed by Lisp. | |
| ;; So why is Lisp so great and why so many parenthesis? These two different questions have the same answer; because Lisp have syntactic abstraction trough t |
