To utter with imperfect articulation; to express with words pronounced imperfectly or indistinctly, as a child speaks; hence, to express by the use of simple, childlike language
LISt Processor: A high level, list processing language commonly used in artificial intelligence and computer research LISP is different from most other programming languages in several ways; a major difference is that recursion is used as a control structure rather than iteration (looping) which is common in most programming languages
a flexible procedure-oriented programing language that manipulates symbols in the form of lists a speech defect that involves pronouncing s like voiceless th and z like voiced th speak with a lisp
The letters "LISP" are an acronym in which the "LIS" stands for list, and the "P" stands for processing LISP is an old programming language which existed long before AutoCAD The dialect called XLISP is the language from which AutoLISP was developed for inclusion in AutoCAD For a full explanation of AutoLISP, see "Basic concepts" and "History of AutoLISP"
Lisp is the most powerful and also easiest to use programming language ever developed Invented by John McCarthy at MIT in the late 1950s, Lisp is today used by the most sophisticated programmers pushing the limits of computers in mathematical physics, computer-aided engineering, and computer-aided genetics Lisp is also used by thousands of people who don't think of themselves as programmers at all, only people who want to define shortcuts in AutoCAD or the Emacs text editor The best introduction to Lisp is also the best introduction to computer science: Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs (Abelson and Sussman 1996; MIT Press)
Acronym for List Processor, a high-level programming language especially popular for artificial intelligence applications LISP was developed in the early 1960s by John McCarthy at MIT
If someone lisps, they say something with a lisp or speak with a lisp. The little man, upset, was lisping badly Bochmann lisped his congratulations. her low, lisping voice. A programming language designed to process data consisting of lists. It is widely used in artificial intelligence research. a fault in the way someone speaks which makes them pronounce 's' sounds as 'th'. Powerful computer programming language designed for manipulating lists of data or symbols rather than processing numerical data, used extensively in artificial-intelligence applications. It was developed in the late 1950s and early 1960s by a group headed by John McCarthy at MIT. Its name derives from "list processor." Radically different from such other programming languages as ALGOL, C, C++, FORTRAN, and Pascal, it requires large memory space and is slow in executing programs
Utter with imperfect articulation; to express with words pronounced imperfectly or indistinctly, as a child speaks; hence, to express by the use of simple, childlike language
Lisp is a programming language Most of Emacs is written in a dialect of Lisp, called Emacs Lisp, that is extended with special features which make it especially suitable for text editing tasks
"Lisp" stands for LISt Processing, an interpreted programming language developed for the study of artificial intelligence All expressions are built as parentheses-enclosed lists, which allows for programs to be handled as data Cogent's Gamma language runs on top of SCADALisp, a version of Lisp that has been optimized for size, speed and memory usage, and uses the strengths of Lisp to facilitate development through: Simplified programsExtensive GUI servicesUnrestricted callbacksRun-time debuggingPowerful inter-task communications
Lisp stands for list processing and is the second oldest computer language in the world Being developed in 1959, it lost the title to FORTRAN by only a few months It is typically interpreted, but compilers are available for some platforms Attempts were made to standardize the language, and the standard version is called "Common Lisp" There have also been efforts to simplify the language, and the results of these efforts is another language called Scheme Lisp is a fairly portable language, but is not particularly fast Today, Lisp is most widely used with AI software
a computer language; the name is an abbreviation of LISt Processing Lisp is a functional language in which an operation (function name) is written, followed by its arguments, inside parentheses, e g (+ x 3)
If someone has a lisp, they pronounce the sounds `s' and `z' as if they were `th'. For example, they say `thing' instead of `sing'. He has a slight lisp
acronym for List Processing, a computer programming language developed from 1959 to 1960, used primarily to manipulate lists of data LISP was a departure from the procedural languages (FORTRAN, ALGOL) then being developed; it is an interpreted language in which every expression is a list of calls to functions LISP continues to be heavily used in research and academia and has been considered the standard language for artifical intelligence research, although Prolog has made inroads into that field
