My free time is very limited, and my end goal is to write some interesting software over the course of the next 6 months or so -- and have fun doing it. :) I've only used languages like C, Java, Perl, Ruby, and Python in the past.
Any advice on which one to go with for someone brand new to Lisp? Does Arc come with enough tutorial material for someone brand new to Lisp in general?
Which is a bigger leap: to go from CL to Arc or from Scheme to Arc? Is Arc any harder to learn than the CL or Scheme?
