Code in unfamiliar languages always looks ugly. I know c# but not Lisp, and that just looks like ugly brackets salad to me. It can't help that your formatting as AWOL.

So your statement that The C# one looks very long and ugly is entirely subjective.



Of course it is, and can I coin the "ugly brackets salad" phrase?


I coined it, but you can have it. See also: angry fruit salad http://catb.org/jargon/html/A/angry-fruit-salad.html
