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

Key differences between R and Lisp
Characteristic | R | Lisp |
---|---|---|
Syntax | R has a syntax that is similar to the S programming language, with a focus on data analysis and visualization. | Lisp has a unique syntax that uses parentheses to represent code as a series of nested lists. |
Paradigm | R is primarily a functional programming language, but also supports object-oriented and procedural programming paradigms. | Lisp is a functional programming language that supports metaprogramming and is often used for artificial intelligence and symbolic computing. |
Typing | R is dynamically typed, meaning that variable types are determined at runtime. | Lisp is dynamically typed, meaning that variable types are determined at runtime. |
Performance | R can be slower than other languages due to its focus on data analysis and visualization rather than performance. | Lisp can be fast and efficient due to its use of macros and the ability to optimize code at runtime. |
Libraries and frameworks | R has a large number of libraries and frameworks for data analysis, machine learning, and visualization, including ggplot2, dplyr, and caret. | Lisp has a smaller number of libraries and frameworks, but is often used in conjunction with other languages and tools for specific tasks. |
Community and support | R has a large and active community of users and developers, with many online resources and forums for support. | Lisp has a smaller but dedicated community of users and developers, with a focus on open-source development and collaboration. |
Learning curve | R can have a steep learning curve for beginners due to its focus on data analysis and visualization, but there are many resources available for learning. | Lisp can have a steep learning curve due to its unique syntax and functional programming paradigm, but is often praised for its simplicity and elegance. |
