Scheme 1: Feel the cool
Channel: Andy Balaam
Date: 2012-05-25

Why the Scheme programming language (a type of Lisp) is so cool.  Andy Balaam takes you on a whirlwind tour of why Scheme is: Simple, Weird and Cool.  It's simple because there's only one thing you can do.  It's weird because it's functional, dynamic, and code and data are the same thing.  It's cool because in Scheme metaprogramming is just...programming.  Warning: there will be brackets.  The slides are here: http://www.artificialworlds.net/blog/2012/04/13/scheme-feel-the-cool/
