- Lisp is a classic example of an unstratified language, where the distinction between code and data is blurred, enabling powerful metaprogramming capabilities.
- The researchers proposed a new unstratified language that could be used to create self-modifying code, allowing for more flexible and adaptive software systems.
- The unstratified language paradigm challenges traditional notions of programming language design, where the language is no longer a fixed, rigid framework.
- By using an unstratified language, developers can create code that can reason about and modify its own structure, leading to more intelligent and autonomous software systems.
