If you'll be in Seattle in two weeks, put this on your calendar:
* Topic: Lisp and Symbolic Programming From the Beginning
* Presenter: Ira J. Kalet, Ph.D., Professor
http://www.radonc.washington.edu/faculty/ira/
* Date: Thursday, June 14, 2007
* Time: 6:15 - 7:45 PM
* Location: Capitol Hill branch of library
* Cost: Free and open to the public of all ages
This session will introduce the basic ideas that make Lisp a
uniquely powerful programming language, illustrated with examples
from biomedical applications, including molecular biology, drug
interactions and cancer treatment.
If time allows, we will introduce functional programming, CLOS,
the Meta-Object Protocol and macros.
If there is interest but insufficient time, a second session is
possible.
The session is for both experienced Lispers and those new to
Lisp.
