jacobnavia <jacob@jacob.remcomp.fr> writes: > That is exactly "lisp" notation but with parentheses moved. Do yourself a favor, learn to program in lisp before trying to make a point against it. (And that's true for all programming languages, and that's true outside the CS world: you can't make a convincing point against something if you don't understand it well enough that you are able to make convincing points in favor; most choices are the result of trade-off which are driven by the relative importance given to the various aspects). The interest of lisp has nothing to do with the notation -- the sexp one was first destinated to be an temporary one, but it fills its purpose well enough that it has never been displaced although there were several variants which used infix and a position of parenthesis that you'd find more familiar.
