Also, from an outside perspective, I think your idea for a "Arc for Scheme" primer would be a great idea. The Little Schemer is widely recommended, so it could potentially result in more people finding their way into Arc.
Ah, well, I skimmed it yesterday. Which I guess skimming is the last thing to do when it comes to a document of that sort ^.^
Essentially, I want to learn Lisp because the colloquial "they" recommend it to gain a better understanding of programming in general.
I want to learn Arc because it seems to take the lisp philosophy to heart the most out of the lisps.
And generally, I'm the type of person that can withstand some amount of "jumping into the deep end." Although, I may be in a bit too deep this time. Heh.
I'll probably continue to lurk around here until I've got a bit more experience under my belt, and thoughts to contribute.
Yeah I figured that would be the deal getting into it, but I'm still willing to learn it. I think the whole philosophy is really neat.
I think what I'm going to try to do is continue to play around with Arc, while also learning on something a bit more established. Maybe Scheme or Clojure.
Right. I created one in Ruby not too long ago. Then I decided I wanted to see it in the browser, so I used something called Opal to convert my Ruby code to JS. Then I built up the necessary html/css.
