What Lisp dialect should I learn?
davidw: If it's just a functional language you want, you ought to consider other things too:* Haskell: very 'pure' functional language from academia, much more so than Scheme.* Erlang: slightly more practical functional language that's used in industry and has some nice properties, but is probably not a 'thing of beauty'.* F# and Ocaml seem to have their supporters too...Clojure seems to be popular these days if it's a Lisp you want.
