How to use this tool?

This free online converter lets you convert code from Lisp to Kotlin in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -

  1. Type or paste your Lisp code in the input box.
  2. Click the convert button.
  3. The resulting Kotlin code from the conversion will be displayed in the output box.

Examples

The following are examples of code conversion from Lisp to Kotlin 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.

Key differences between Lisp and Kotlin

CharacteristicLispKotlin
SyntaxLisp has a unique syntax that uses a lot of parentheses and prefix notation.Kotlin has a more traditional syntax that is similar to Java, but with some added features like null safety and extension functions.
ParadigmLisp is a functional programming language that supports procedural and object-oriented programming.Kotlin is a multi-paradigm language that supports both object-oriented and functional programming.
TypingLisp is dynamically typed, meaning that variable types are determined at runtime.Kotlin is statically typed, meaning that variable types are determined at compile time.
PerformanceLisp is generally considered to be a high-performance language, especially for numerical and scientific computing.Kotlin is a relatively fast language, but not as fast as some other compiled languages like C++ or Rust.
Libraries and frameworksLisp has a smaller ecosystem of libraries and frameworks compared to some other languages, but there are still many useful tools available.Kotlin has a growing ecosystem of libraries and frameworks, especially for Android development.
Community and supportLisp has a small but dedicated community of users and developers, with many online resources available.Kotlin has a large and active community, with many resources and support available from JetBrains and other organizations.
Learning curveLisp has a steep learning curve due to its unique syntax and functional programming concepts.Kotlin has a relatively gentle learning curve, especially for developers familiar with Java or other similar languages.
