Lisp, a strongly typed lisp, lol.
Really though, Lisp is the language that can be become anything, gain any feature or capability, in any way you can really imagine, including gaining any syntax you could possibly want (read-macro’s are wonderful, you can have a python syntax, C, whatever you want to make a parser for, lol).
I wish it were more popular, but two things conspire against it:
- It was originally conceptually tied to the original ‘AI’ movement in the 70’s/80’s, and when it died it brought down Lisp with it (Lisp was used because it was the best language that was expressive enough for that work).
- A lot of people fear parenthesis explosion, even though it’s really not bad at all once you get used to it. ^.^
