Re: OT: Beauty of programming languages (was: Way to flatten nested \include's?)

Greetings Michael,

I used to use APL! Truly wonderful.

As to beauty, while subjective, amongst mathematicians at least there is a 
shared sense of the beautiful, and not purely personal taste. Scheme has the 
elegance mathematicians and computer scientists perceive. Nobody could say 
Python is _beautiful_. [I use Python, so I am not just bashing it.]
