Python for Lisp Programmers

Peter Norvig, Mr. AI, one of the Chief Brains at NASA, and the only Lisp hacker I know of with an Erdos number of 4, has written an essay for Lisp programmers who may want to learn Python. While the page does have a few errors (for example: "everything in Python is an object" isn't, strictly speaking, true of Python in the same sense it's true of Lisp), it's generally very sound and quite clear.

While it's meant to Lisp hackers wanting to pick up Python, I also found it useful as a Python hacker wanting to pick up Common Lisp. And as Norvig is enamored of Common Lisp, one wonders what he'll make of Vyper when he discovers it.

Good stuff. Recommended.
