Originally specified in 1958, Lisp is the second-oldest high-level programming language in widespread use today; only Fortran is older (by one year).

“This is not a language you can use to program computers, just as the Lisp in the 1960 paper wasn’t,” Graham wrote. Bel was so much more work than you'd guess from looking at it.

Robust Functionality The 1980s saw two notable programming languages, C++ and Objective-C, among others like Lisp, Ada, and MATLAB. If you recognize these, it’s for good reason.

Developed by MIT alum John McCarthy in 1959, LISP is one of the oldest programming languages, yet companies including Cadence and Grammarly still use it to build commercial products.

Lisp is a programming language that was created in the late 1950s, making it one of the oldest programming languages still in use today. Lisp is known for its unique syntax and its powerful ...

Scheme is a statically scoped and properly tail-recursive dialect of the Lisp programming language invented by Guy Lewis Steele Jr. and Gerald Jay Sussman while at MIT.

Harlan can be compiled to OpenCL (like CUDA), but it can also make use of higher-level languages like Python and Ruby. The syntax is based on Scheme, which itself is based on the much-beloved Lisp ...

That’s what [xorvoid] did and it resulted in the gracefully titled Forsp programming language. Unsurprisingly it got a very warm and enthusiastic reception over at Hacker News.
