Two points: if your complaint is about Lisp in general, then it's not really relevant to the post. Some people can read Lisp syntax just fine. So, for them, the DSL is readable. Second point is that since the beginners know nothing, they don't have preconceived notions of what programs should look like. Having just taught an intro to programming course, I am very aware that even the semantics of something like "i = 2" can be misunderstood by beginners. One advantage of the Lisp syntax for beginners is that it's extremely simple and consistent. |
