I've actually known about Blackcode.com for a while but unfortunately never took the time to tell anyone else about it, which is a shame, since it carries so many useful tools all in one place.

When you think Lisp, you probably think arcane, theoretical, or even useless. Well, let me tell you--I've forayed into Common Lisp deeper than I want to admit, and It's far from useless, only somewhat theoretical, and with some of the great books out there, it can seem a lot less arcane. That said, it's also much different than anything you're used to, I'm sure. Let's take a look at what's so different about it first. Then we'll see how we can use Common Lisp just like any other language.

This time we'll see a possible implementation of a Set class written in C#, since the framework doesn't implement it natively.

Recursion offers a couple of interesting ways to solve a problem. One of them can be exploited for an easy and fast sort algorithm, the merge sort.

Recently I found myself needing to retrieve the list of files in a folder to show them along with some basic information. ANSI C doesn't provide a standard way to do this, and, while Linux and UNIX programmers can rely on the output of programs such as "ls", a Windows developper has the ability to use specific APIs.

After getting our feet wet with some basic sorting utilities, it's time to move on to a faster algorithm: the counting sort. It can only be used in some special cases, but works like a charm.
