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

Key differences between Scala and Lisp
Characteristic | Scala | Lisp |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Scala has a syntax that is similar to Java, but with more advanced features such as pattern matching and higher-order functions. It also supports both object-oriented and functional programming paradigms. | Lisp has a unique syntax that uses lots of parentheses and prefix notation. It is a functional programming language that supports macros and code as data. |
Paradigm | Scala supports both object-oriented and functional programming paradigms. | Lisp is a functional programming language that supports macros and code as data. |
Typing | Scala is a statically typed language with type inference. | Lisp is a dynamically typed language. |
Performance | Scala is known for its high performance and scalability. | Lisp is not known for its performance, but it is still used in some high-performance applications. |
Libraries and frameworks | Scala has a large number of libraries and frameworks available, including Akka, Play, and Spark. | Lisp has a smaller number of libraries and frameworks available, but it does have some notable ones such as Common Lisp Object System (CLOS) and Emacs Lisp. |
Community and support | Scala has a large and active community with many resources available for learning and support. | Lisp has a smaller community than Scala, but it still has dedicated users and resources available for learning and support. |
Learning curve | Scala has a steeper learning curve than some other languages due to its advanced features and complex syntax. | Lisp has a steep learning curve due to its unique syntax and functional programming paradigm. |
