[LISP] Looking for good tutorials.

Name: Anonymous 2012-07-17 18:05

After reading /prog/ for some months, I decided to find out what all the fuss is about and learn LISP. I'm pretty sure I'm getting ``trolled'' but if it's really as good as some of you say then I absolutely have to try it out.

The problem is, I can't find any good learning resources/tutorials. Would you mind helping me out? How did you learn (LISP)? Should I watch Hal Abelson's SICP lecture videos on youtube or are they outdated? Also, is emacs good for writing LISP?

CLISP is slow. In fact all Common Lisp implementations are clunky codebases from the 80s. The best implementations are Steel Bank CL, LispWorks and Allegro CL but none of them really generates what would be considered good assembly code.
