Lisp (historically LISP) is a family of computer programming languages with a long history and a distinctive fully parenthesized Polish prefix notation.Originally specified in 1958 Lisp is the second-oldest high-level programming language in widespread use today; only Fortran is older (by one year). Like Fortran Lisp has changed a great deal since its early days and a number of dialects have existed over its history.
