Personal bits around AI, Programming and other things I might find interesting
Thanks to a tweet from Tiago Charters de Azevedo, I learned today that Mozilla’s CVS tree still contains the original implementation of Javascript written in Common Lisp. I always found interesting to see examples of Lisp being used in places most people wouldn’t dream of (even if later it’s replaced by another language implementation). The … Continue reading Original implementation of Javascript in CL
In my previous post, I wrote an overview of this simple, but important, component which is the generation of pseudo-random numbers, using Common Lisp. However, sometimes you need a little bit more. Naturally, an implementation only offers one generator and no standard facilities exist to change. If you want a different generator the only options … Continue reading More random number generators in Lisp: using GSLL
For the past few days I have been exploring a little bit more the generation of pseudo-random numbers in Lisp. In the past I have done a lot of programming where this was something not to overlook (e.g., evolutionary algorithms). However, since it was mostly stuff to be used by me, I didn’t spend time … Continue reading Exploring pseudo-random numbers in Lisp
Recently I’ve just clean up my computer which in short means a format and a new software installation. I also try to clean up my files and keep things in order but that part is harder to accomplish. And as a side effect I guess my MacBookPro is more prepared for the Snow Leopard upgrade … Continue reading Starting with scientific programming in Lisp
