gollark: What of the Raspberry Pi Pico™ apioid?
gollark: I actually made CONS CONS all values in the program, for purposes.
gollark: ```lisp (let (qsort xs cont) (cond ((= xs '()) (cont '())) (true (do (let h (head xs)) (let t (tail xs)) (let part_result (partition_rec t (lambda (x) (< x h)) '(() ()))) (qsort (head part_result) (lambda (ls) (qsort (snd part_result) (lambda (rs) (cont (+ ls (list h) rs)))))) )) ))```Here is a sorting program.
gollark: Lisp is basically where you take a functional dynamically typed language and replace all the syntax with nested brackets.
gollark: As such, exactly 3 people will buy it.
