Lisp Interview Questions for Beginners

LISP stands for – List Processing – LISP (or LISP)

LG3 is a code Generator for LISP. It generates code that is easy to read and edit on the editor and run on any AutoCAD system.

You can pass commands to LG3 by selecting general operations from the tools menu.

No, Lisp is not pure-functional language.

LISP programming language can be used for:

• Animation and Graphics
• Handling Bioinformatics devices.
• Creating B2b Marketplace.
• In Artificial Intelligence.
• Data Mining
• Electronic Design Automation (EDA)/Semiconductor applications
• Computer Aided Design (CAD)
• Modeling and Simulation
• Natural Language Processing

A symbolic expression as S-expression, sexpr or sexp is a way to represent a nested list of data in LISP.

For example (* 5 (+ 7 3))

4 types of arguments are available in Lisp Programming Language. They are

• Environment argument.
• Interaction argument.
• Evolution argument.
• Uniformity argument.

Equal primitive in LISP tests two arguments to see if their values are the same expression. It works on both atoms and lists.

(define greet
  (lambda (given #:last surname)
    (string-append "Hello, " given " " surname)))
 
> (greet "John" #:last "Smith") 
"Hello, John Smith"
> (greet #:last "Doe" "John")
"Hello, John Doe"

In above example last is a keyword argument.

Fortran is a High-level programming language. The full form of Fortran is Formula Translation. This language was developed in the year 1957 by John Backus. Just like any other language it is also used for writing high-performance programs and is best suitable for numeric and scientific computing. It is mainly used for translating the maths formula into code.

Fortran is a very simple language and it can easily be transported to any machine. It has the capability of expressing even the complex functions of mathematics. This language has proved to be highly efficient in the world of coding and doesn't require any code layout like any other machine language.
