Never looked into it; same with Haskell. Maybe they're used in companies, somewhere, but in the Netherlands, both are mainly taught at research universities because they're different from any of the common languages. Compared to Lisp and Haskell, languages like Pascal and C are intuitive.
I wonder if anyone ever made a language like Lisp or Haskell that can do what they do, but use C syntax. There are some projects that try to wrangle Lisp itself into a C-like syntax, but that's not what I mean; I mean a language that LOOKS as if it's C, but ACTS like Lisp.
