Hi house, just wanted to know if anyone is familiar with Lisp Programming language i started using it few weeks ago (and its killing me ) for a school project relating to Artificial Intelligence(e.g Siri).....is anyone familiar with it .....Thanks in Advance

Wow interesting, this is my first time hearing about this Lisp language. I will have to read about it

its actually interesting but frustration would nearly kill you ...(lol)....

are you a programmer?

Yep, I'm a programmer . Actually I don't like that word (Programmer), I see myself more as a Computer Scientist trying to cover various fields in the extremely vast Computer Science field. There is so much to learn and know.

exactly!!! but personally i prefer Software to Hardware that's why i chose Software Engineering ...Hardware is boring like crazy you look like some one who enjoys Hardware .........tell me I'm wrong?

Well in my honest opinion, it's good to be proficient at both. Computer Engineers and Electrical Engineers (depending on the path they followed in school) can be proficient at both.

Yes, I'm familiar with lisp. What would you like to know?

Ask wikipedia

But can u please define 'Artificial Intelligence' for me

Sir how do you implement the ID3 Algorithm in Lisp

Can you implement it in any language? If not, then lisp is not the problem, and you just have a poor understanding of the algorithm or programming.
If you can implement it in another language, then do so first. It's a tree traversal algorithm. So figure out how you can represent your trees as a list, then figure out how to visit the nodes. I would represent a tree as (root left right) then you can use first to get the value of the current node, second to get the left node, and third to get the right node.
