Says spurperl:
Lisp's general model is functional.It isn't. it allows assignments and other side effects, but their usage is discouragedPerhaps by you, but not by any serious Lisp programmers that I know. What do you think CLOS is for? Do you think that it was invented so that its use could be discouraged? I suggest you read Common Lisp: The Language by Steele or On Lisp by Graham, and perhaps revise your opinion.
