I have a .txt file like this:

And i want LISP to read the text file and generate two lists, the first one with the first nine values of the text file and the second one with the next nine values. Like these: List1 = (0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8), List2 = (0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8).
I have these code:
(DEFUN text()
(SETQ l NIL)
(LOOP
(UNLESS (NULL l) (SETQ LST1 (LIST (READ l)(READ l)(READ l)(READ l)(READ l)(READ l)(READ l)(READ l)(READ l))
LST2 (LIST (READ l)(READ l)(READ l)(READ l)(READ l)(READ l)(READ l)(READ l)(READ l))
eb (LST1) em (LST2))
(CLOSE l) (RETURN (ASTAR LST1 LST2)))
(SETQ l (OPEN filename :if-does-not-exist nil))))
Don't use SETQ with undeclared global variables, use local bindings with let. Global variables make your code fragile w.r.t. side-effects and clutter the global namespace.
Don't copy paste or painfully rewrite the same thing over and over, use a loop
Don't call open/close yourself unless necessary, prefer with-open-file.
You don't need to write in uppercase
Two nested loops
(defun read-18-lines-of-integers-in-two-lists (file)
(with-open-file (in file)
(loop repeat 2
collect (loop repeat 9
collect (parse-integer (read-line in))))))
Example
(read-18-lines-of-integers-in-two-lists #P"/tmp/test")
=> ((0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8) (0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8))

I'm doing an algorithm that randomizes a TSP (array of citys) based on 1 TSP.
(do ((i 0 (+ i 1)))
((= i n-population))
(setf (aref population i) (shuffle TSP 100))
)
And as far as I know im filling up i positions of the array population with (shuffle TSP 100) that is beeing called each iteration, but the algorithm is setting all array positions and not just i position.
[Note. An earlier version of this answer contained a mistake which would badly alter the statistics of the shuffling: please check below for the corrected version and a note as to what the problem was.]
Given your code, slightly elaborated to turn it into a function:
(defun fill-array-with-something (population n-population TSP)
(do ((i 0 (+ i 1)))
((= i n-population))
(setf (aref population i) (shuffle TSP 100))))
Then each element of population from 0 to (1- n-population) will be set to the result of (shuffle TSP 100). There are then two possibilities:
(shuffle TSP 100) returns a fresh object from each call;
(shuffle TSP 100) returns the same object – probably TSP – from each call.
In the first case, each element of the array will have a distinct value. In the second case, all elements below n-population will have the same value.
Without knowing what your shuffle function does, here is an example of one which will give the latter behaviour:
(defun shuffle (vec n)
;; shuffle pairs of elts of VEC, N times.
(loop with max = (length vec)
repeat n
do (rotatef (aref vec (random max))
(aref vec (random max)))
finally (return vec)))
And we can test this:
> (let ((pop (make-array 10))
(tsp (vector 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 )))
(fill-array-with-something pop (length pop) tsp)
pop)
#(#(2 8 7 1 3 9 5 4 0 6) #(2 8 7 1 3 9 5 4 0 6) #(2 8 7 1 3 9 5 4 0 6)
#(2 8 7 1 3 9 5 4 0 6) #(2 8 7 1 3 9 5 4 0 6) #(2 8 7 1 3 9 5 4 0 6)
#(2 8 7 1 3 9 5 4 0 6) #(2 8 7 1 3 9 5 4 0 6) #(2 8 7 1 3 9 5 4 0 6)
#(2 8 7 1 3 9 5 4 0 6))
As you can see all the elements are mysteriously the same thing, which is because my shuffle simply returned its first argument, having modified it in place.
You can check this by either explicitly checking the result of shuffle, or by, for instance, using *print-circle* to see the sharing. The latter approach is pretty neat:
> (let ((*print-circle* t)
(pop (make-array 10))
(tsp (vector 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 )))
(fill-array-with-something pop (length pop) tsp)
(print pop)
(values))
#(#1=#(4 6 7 0 1 2 5 9 3 8) #1# #1# #1# #1# #1# #1# #1# #1# #1#)
And now it's immediately apparent what the problem is.
The solution is to make sure either that shuffle returns a fresh object, or to copy its result. With my shuffle this can be done like this:
(defun fill-array-with-something (population n-population tsp)
(do ((i 0 (+ i 1)))
((= i n-population))
(setf (aref population i) (shuffle (copy-seq TSP) 100))))
Note that a previous version of this answer had (copy-seq (shuffle TSP 100)): with my version of shuffle this is a serious mistake, as it means that the elements in population are related to each other but get increasingly shuffled as you go along. With (shuffle (copy-seq TSP) 100) each element gets the same amount of shuffling, independently.
And now
> (let ((*print-circle* t)
(pop (make-array 10))
(tsp (vector 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 )))
(fill-array-with-something pop (length pop) tsp)
(print pop)
(values))
#(#(8 3 4 1 6 9 2 5 0 7) #(8 6 5 1 3 0 4 2 9 7) #(5 0 4 7 1 6 9 3 2 8)
#(3 0 7 6 2 9 4 5 1 8) #(8 2 5 1 7 3 9 0 4 6) #(0 5 6 3 8 7 2 1 4 9)
#(4 1 3 7 8 0 5 2 9 6) #(6 9 1 5 0 7 4 2 3 8) #(2 7 5 8 0 9 6 3 4 1)
#(5 4 8 9 6 7 2 0 1 3))
I suspect that the problem is in OP function SHUFFLE which has not yet been shared; my suspicion is that SHUFFLE is shuffling the *TSP* array itself in place instead of creating a shuffled copy of that array. The POPULATION values are then all referencing the same shuffled *TSP* array.
To solve this problem, SHUFFLE should return a shuffled array instead of shuffling the array in place. Here is a function that performs a Fisher-Yates shuffle on a vector:
(defun shuffle-vector (vect)
"Takes a vector argument VECT and returns a shuffled vector."
(let ((result (make-array (length vect) :fill-pointer 0)))
(labels ((shuffle (v)
(if (zerop (length v))
result
(let* ((i (random (length v)))
(x (elt v i)))
(vector-push x result)
(shuffle (concatenate 'vector
(subseq v 0 i)
(subseq v (1+ i))))))))
(shuffle vect))))
Testing in the REPL:
CL-USER> (defvar *TSP* #("Village" "Town" "City" "Metropolis" "Megalopolis"))
*TSP*
CL-USER> (defvar *n-population* 5)
*N-POPULATION*
CL-USER> (defvar *population* (make-array *n-population*))
*POPULATION*
CL-USER> (dotimes (i *n-population*)
(setf (aref *population* i) (shuffle-vector *TSP*)))
NIL
CL-USER> *population*
#(#("Megalopolis" "City" "Metropolis" "Town" "Village")
#("Megalopolis" "Metropolis" "Town" "City" "Village")
#("City" "Megalopolis" "Town" "Village" "Metropolis")
#("City" "Megalopolis" "Village" "Metropolis" "Town")
#("Megalopolis" "Town" "Metropolis" "City" "Village"))
I have two functions in my program. The one that is commented out mods every element in a list by five. And the second function counts how many times an element appears in a list. How do I combine both of these to get my desired result of determining how many elements of a list are divisible by five?
Here is my code:
(defun divide-bye-five (lst)
(loop for x in lst collect (mod x 5)))
(defun counter (a lst)
(cond ((null lst) 0)
((equal a (car lst)) (+ 1 (counter a (cdr lst))))
(t (counter a (cdr lst)))))
(counter '0 '(0 0 0 20 0 0 0 0 0 5 31))
If you need just select all elemets in list, which are dividable by five, you can use remove-if-not.
(defun dividable-by-5 (num)
(zerop (mod num 5))
CL-USER> (remove-if-not #'dividable-by-5 '(1 2 3 10 15 30 31 40))
(10 15 30 40)
But I'm not sure, do you want select this elements, or just count them? Of course you can count them by calling length on resulting list, or of you don't need all elements, but just a number, you can use count-if.
CL-USER> (count-if #'dividable-by-5 '(1 2 3 10 15 30 31 40))

If you have two functions where the result of one is what you would like as the input for the second you can combine them like this:
(second-fun (first-fun first-fun-arg ...))
So specifically using your provided functions it should work doing:
(counter 0 (divide-bye-five '(1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10))) ; ==> 2
If you'd like to abstract it you make it a function:
(defun count-dividable-with-five (lst)
(counter 0 (divide-bye-five lst)))
ANSI Common Lisp.
Why I get an other answer in the last case?
(list 1 2 3 nil) ; (1 2 3 nil)
(funcall (function list) 1 2 3 nil) ; (1 2 3 nil)
(apply (function list) '(1 2 3 nil)) ; (1 2 3 nil)
(apply (function list) 1 2 3 nil) ; (1 2 3)
APPLY expects as arguments:
a function
zero ... n arguments
and then a list of arguments at the end
The function will basically be called with the result of (list* 0-arg ... n-arg argument-list)
Note that (list* '(1 2 3)) evaluates to just (1 2 3).
The arguments are called spreadable argument list in Common Lisp.
CL-USER 60 > (apply (function list) 1 2 3 nil)
(1 2 3)
CL-USER 61 > (apply (function list) (list* 1 2 3 nil))
(1 2 3)
CL-USER 62 > (apply (function list) (list* '(1 2 3)))
(1 2 3)
APPLY uses such a spreadable argument list by design. For example (... 1 2 3 '(4 5)). With FUNCALL you have to write the arguments as usual: (... 1 2 3 4 5).
APPLY has a single purpose in Common Lisp: it allows functions to be called with computed argument lists. To make that a bit more convenient, this idea of the spreadable argument list has been used. It works the same for example in Emacs Lisp.
Imagine that you have a list of arguments and you want to add two arguments in front.
CL-USER 64 > (apply '+ args)
60
CL-USER 65 > (apply '+ 1 2 args)
63
CL-USER 66 > (apply '+ (append (list 1 2) args))

I am working in Common Lisp, trying to make Windows game minesweeper.
I have a list (1 1 1 2 2 2 3 3 3) and want to print that like matrix
(1 1 1
2 2 2
3 3 3)
How to do that?
Edit
I am at the beginning of
(format t "Input width:")
(setf width (read))
(format t "Input height:")
(setf height (read))
(format t "How many mines:")
(setf brMina (read))
(defun matrica (i j)
(cond ((= 0 i) '())
(t (append (vrsta j) (matrica (1- i) j) ))))
(setf minefield (matrica width height))
(defun stampaj ()
(format t "~%~a" minefield ))
Another example, using the pretty-printer for fun:
(defun print-list-as-matrix
(list elements-per-row
&optional (cell-width (1+ (truncate (log (apply #'max list) 10)))))
(let ((*print-right-margin* (* elements-per-row (1+ cell-width)))
(*print-miser-width* nil)
(*print-pretty* t)
(format-string (format nil "~~<~~#{~~~ad~~^ ~~}~~#:>~%" cell-width)))
(format t format-string list)))
Works like this:
CL-USER> (print-list-as-matrix (loop for i from 1 to 9 collect i) 3)
1 2 3
4 5 6
7 8 9
NIL
CL-USER> (print-list-as-matrix (loop for i from 1 to 25 collect i) 5)
1 2 3 4 5
6 7 8 9 10
11 12 13 14 15
16 17 18 19 20
21 22 23 24 25
NIL
CL-USER> (print-list-as-matrix (loop for i from 1 to 16 collect i) 2)
1 2
3 4
5 6
7 8
9 10
11 12
13 14
15 16
Like this:
(defun print-list-as-grid (list rows cols)
(assert (= (length list) (* rows cols))
(loop for row from 0 below rows do
(loop for col from 0 below cols do
(princ (car list))
(princ #\space)
(setf list (cdr list)))
(princ #\newline)))
* (print-list-as-grid '(a b c d e f g h i) 3 3)
A B C
D E F
G H I
NIL
Is it possible to tell dolist to start at (or even better after) a certain element in the given list? As I may not want to evaluate all the elements before.
If there is no way to do so, is there any other macro which might do the job?
Considering this example:
(defvar *liste* #(1 2 3 4 5 6))
(dolist (x *liste* :start-after: '4)
(FORMAT t "~a~%" x))
resulting in:
5
6
Which Lisp dialect are we talking about?
Assuming Common Lisp.
#(1 2 3 4 5 6) is not a list. It is a vector.
CL-USER > (let ((v #(1 2 3 4 5 6)))
(loop for i from 4 below (length v)
do (print (aref v i))))
5
6
NIL
With a list:
CL-USER 1 > (mapc #'print (nthcdr 4 '(1 2 3 4 5 6)))
5
6
(5 6)
