Learning Common Lisp

Learning Common Lisp is a permanent condition, affecting even the most experienced hackers. But for those who are just beginning, the following resources will be helpful.

Resources

 * Start with the Common Lisp Wiki (or CLiki) pages on Getting Started and Education.
 * The Wikipedia page on Common Lisp has an overview, code examples, and links. Browsing through the examples there will familiarize you with the syntax, which will help a lot in getting started.
 * Here is an interesting Common Lisp feature list.
 * There are also many free lisp books and other educational resources. A good starting point is Practical Common Lisp.
 * If you have general Common Lisp questions, you can ask comp.lang.lisp on Usenet, LispForum, or #lisp on irc.freenode.org.
 * User:Arbscht has a FAQ for lisp newbies.
