This free online converter lets you convert code from Elixir to Lisp in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -
- Type or paste your Elixir 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 Elixir 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.
Elixir
Lisp
Example 2 - Even or Odd
A well commented function to check if a number if odd or even.

Key differences between Elixir and Lisp
Characteristic | Elixir | Lisp |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Elixir has a Ruby-like syntax with a focus on readability and simplicity. | Lisp has a unique syntax based on parentheses and prefix notation. |
Paradigm | Elixir is a functional programming language with support for concurrency and distributed computing. | Lisp is a multi-paradigm language that supports functional programming, procedural programming, and metaprogramming. |
Typing | Elixir is dynamically typed with strong type inference. | Lisp is dynamically typed with optional type annotations. |
Performance | Elixir is known for its high performance and scalability due to the Erlang Virtual Machine (BEAM). | Lisp performance can vary depending on the implementation, but it is generally considered to be fast. |
Libraries and frameworks | Elixir has a growing ecosystem of libraries and frameworks, including Phoenix for web development. | Lisp has a smaller ecosystem compared to Elixir, but it has libraries and frameworks for various domains. |
Community and support | Elixir has a supportive and active community with regular updates and contributions. | Lisp has a dedicated community, but it is smaller compared to some other languages. |
Learning curve | Elixir has a moderate learning curve, especially for developers familiar with Ruby or functional programming concepts. | Lisp has a steep learning curve due to its unique syntax and concepts like macros. |
