Much of my content is on AutoLISP. So I though I'd best post a video on How and Why I learned AutoLISP, and the Pros and Cons to learning AutoLISP.
AutoLISP is an often-overlooked API programming language. Although it's much older than other API's, it offers a very easy way to create practical programs for everyday usage. Proof to back my argument is the fact that modern API developers will charge a very high price compared to a developer creating a program of equal functionality, but who specializes in LISP.
Obviously, there are cons to using/learning LISP. I cover these in this video. My intent is to help those who are on the fence as to whether or not they should learn AutoLISP or something else.
