Answer to Question #555 in Python for Shachindra Nath

Question

How can I work with Lisp and Adobe Flex? I am looking to build an Information visualisation project where I can display representations and interpretations of data in different visual schemes. I would like to perform the complex mathematical processing of the data using Lisp, but use Flex to render the GUI in Flash player so it can be used across platforms. I would appreciate a theoretical answer at this point, as well as an indication of consulting charges if I need it during the project.

Answer 1

There's no operation in LISP that you can't do in Action Script 3, so the best approach in your case is to write the program directly in AS3 using Adobe Flex or Adobe AIR or Adobe Authoring Tool.
