MIT 6.001 Structure and Interpretation (1986) [video]
I&#x27;m studying CS but haven&#x27;t heard any concrete examples of why I should learn a lisp (scheme, Clojure). Every time I ask i get pseudo-intellectual answers of how it will expand my mind, make it easier to express complex human problems&#x2F;domains into code or even make me re-evaluate things in life on a philosophical level. What? On the one hand, i&#x27;m sooo curious to study all of this and see for myself, but on the other hand, life&#x27;s too short and I&#x27;m already spending so much time in front of a PC to get my degree, learn a couple of more languages, make side projects on github, personal blogs etc to make myself more employable.<p>Anyway, i know this is HN i&#x27;m asking, but can you give me at least one compelling reason why I should study lisp,scheme or clojure ?
