Lisp is a programming language known for treating code and data as interchangeable, a concept called homoiconicity, allowing for unique expression within the language.
By translating Lisp expressions into Python constructs like function calls and lists, programmers can maintain the essence of Lisp in a more familiar syntax.
Incorporating features like lambdas in Python, inspired by Lisp, provides the ability to define and call functions recursively, essential for creating Turing complete languages.
