ANSI Common Lisp
出版信息
Paul Graham / Prentice Hall / 1995-11-12 / USD 116.40
内容简介
For use as a core text supplement in any course covering common LISP such as Artificial Intelligence or Concepts of Programming Languages. Teaching students new and more powerful ways of thinking about programs, this text contains a tutorial-full of examples-that explains all the essential concepts of Lisp programming, plus an up- to-date summary of ANSI Common Lisp, listing every operator in the language. Informative and fun, it gives students everything they need to start writing programs in Lisp both efficiently and effectively, and highlights such innovative Lisp features as automatic memory management, manifest typing, closures, and more.
作者简介
保罗·格雷厄姆，英文名 Paul Graham，（1964年－），美国著名程序员、风险投资家、博客和技术作家。他以Lisp方面的工作而知名，也是最早的Web应用Viaweb的创办者之一，后来以近5千万美元价格被雅虎收购，成为Yahoo! Store。他的著作包括On Lisp (1993)，ANSI Common Lisp (1995) 和Hackers & Painters (2004)。[1]
2005年他与人共同创建了著名的创业投资公司Y Combinator，先后投资了数十家创业公司，包括reddit、Justin.tv等。公司的新闻网站Hacker News是访问量最高的技术新闻信息来源之一。
2008年，他与Y Combinator的另一位创办者杰西卡·利文斯顿结婚。
他拥有哈佛大学应用科学（计算机方向）博士学位，并在罗德岛设计学院和佛罗伦萨绘画艺术学院学习过绘画。
