Can LISP, Python and ASP be used to program computer games?

Question

In any case are these sinuous languages useful for particular purposes?

Answer 1

Lisp and Python are both general purpose, Turing-complete languages, so you can do pretty much what you want with them.

Python is interpreted, so may be too slow for some purposes. But check out pygame.org for a simple library and a bunch of free games written in Python. Pathological is great fun!

Lisp is usually compiled to machine code and supports high-performance optimizations, so it would be a better choice for low level or performance sensitive code than Python.

Many games these days use more than one programming language. For example, C or assembly language for the core engine which is scriptable via a higher level language like Python or Lisp.

ASP is an API made by Microsoft, which is usually used to make dynamic web content (not Flash style movies/games though). It could be used to make online interactive games of some kinds.

Answer 2

Yes; Python can be used to make games (for 2D games have a look at pygame.org, for 3D games try panda3d.org). LISP and ASP, on the other hand, are not really suited to game-making.

Answer 4

They can be yes, it may not be as easy as with other languages but still you can.
