Anyone tried lisp? Looks something like this. ((()))()())))

Remarkable how if the parenthesis is shifted from lambda() to (lambda), people lose the ability to comprehend things.

Isn't it more like
foo(){…} -> (define foo (lambda () …))
tbf?

In clojure it's (def (fn [])) or short (defn []).

In Emacs Lisp, you use one of these two:

(defun funcname (arg1 arg2) (+ arg1 arg2))

(lambda (arg1 arg2) (+ arg1 arg2))

— with the latter typically being an argument to another function or macro.

Your next task is to declare 3 unequal integer variables in scheme and then add them to a 4th letter. Finally tell if it's 0 or not.

C equivalent for reference.

// init
int foo = 1;
int goo = 2;
int bar = 3;
// compare
if(foo + goo + bar) //…
else //…
