How to use this tool?
This free online converter lets you convert code from C++ to Lisp in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -
- Type or paste your C++ code in the input box.
- Click the convert button.
- The resulting Lisp code from the conversion will be displayed in the output box.
Examples
The following are examples of code conversion from C++ to Lisp using this converter. Note that you may not always get the same code since it is generated by an AI language model which is not 100% deterministic and gets updated from time to time.
Example 1 - Is String Palindrome
Program that checks if a string is a palindrome or not.
C++
Lisp
Example 2 - Even or Odd
A well commented function to check if a number if odd or even.
C++
Lisp
Key differences between C++ and Lisp
Characteristic | C++ | Lisp |
---|---|---|
Syntax | C++ has a syntax that is similar to C, with some additional features such as classes and templates. | Lisp has a unique syntax that uses lots of parentheses and prefix notation. |
Paradigm | C++ supports multiple paradigms, including object-oriented, procedural, and generic programming. | Lisp is a functional programming language that supports procedural and object-oriented programming as well. |
Typing | C++ is a statically typed language, which means that variable types are checked at compile time. | Lisp is a dynamically typed language, which means that variable types are checked at runtime. |
Performance | C++ is known for its high performance and is often used for systems programming and game development. | Lisp is not known for its performance and is often used for symbolic processing and artificial intelligence. |
Libraries and frameworks | C++ has a large number of libraries and frameworks available, including Boost, Qt, and OpenCV. | Lisp has a smaller number of libraries and frameworks available, but there are still many useful ones such as Common Lisp Object System (CLOS) and Quicklisp. |
Community and support | C++ has a large and active community with many resources available for learning and support. | Lisp has a smaller community than C++, but there are still many resources available for learning and support, including online forums and user groups. |
Learning curve | C++ has a steep learning curve due to its complex syntax and many features. | Lisp has a moderate learning curve due to its unique syntax and functional programming concepts. |
