familiar to people who are, you know, used to C++ or something, but for me in Lisp, that seemed very, very foreign, and kind of like, almost like, surely I'm doing this wrong. And then once it worked, it kind of felt kind of cool, I kind of liked it. String to number, number to string. It is one of those things that's kind of, you know, actually pretty intuitive. But then again, as far as I can tell, it's really only something that happens as sort of a way of notating your function name, which, I don't know, seems a little bit less exciting. Either way, it's neat, it's cool, Guile is fun, if you like Lisp and Lisp syntax, then Guile seems like it's a great way to have another variety of Lisp available to you. If you're not familiar with it, or if you're not fond of it, then maybe it's not as exciting. But people do seem to like Guile, I mean, I know that it's being used in lots of kind of new and exciting GNU projects, like Geeks and stuff like that, so maybe it's something to look at, (47/55)
