hissp VS gomacro

Hissp is a Python library that can compile a whole program into one Python expression.

If you want Python to be as customizable as Lissp, check out Hissp (and Hebigo).

Hissp is really cool for metaprogramming Python. There's also macropy, but it's harder to use.

I prefer https://github.com/gilch/hissp, where Hy has to use shims to pretend statements are expressions, Hissp just targets the expression subset in the first place. (though as you mentioned, hy has a lot of literature and support around it, where as you're going to have to find your own way around hissp)

No shortage of options, e.g. Dg, Mochi, Coconut, and Hebigo (based on Hissp[1]).

If you want Lisp metaprogramming plus Python ecosystem, check out Hissp

Hissp is really interesting. Read through the docs and you'll understand Python more deeply. It works well with Toolz and Pyrsistent.

gomacro added macros and generics several years before generics reached release.

I use https://github.com/cosmos72/gomacro when I want to quickly try some code.

Officially, it's not much scripting friendly, but there are unofficial support to make it a proper scripting option like the gomacro.

If it's a simple program I guess you could use gomacro:https://github.com/cosmos72/gomacro

Thanks to gomacro we can import no standard libraries on the notebook :P

For our use (debugging and running small scripts to update data), gomacro should work well enough, despite being an "almost complete" Go interpreter. This isn't the same as the Python REPL which uses entirely the same code to run, but it should be up to the task.

I keep meaning to play with https://github.com/cosmos72/gomacro
