Clojure offers simple, powerful and flexible mechanisms for runtime polymorphism. Clojure’s protocols and datatypes features add mechanisms for abstraction and data structure definition with no compromises vs the facilities of the host platform.

6 天之前 · Clojure is a dynamic development environment where you interact with your program while you write it, growing and adding to it while it’s running. To work with Clojure you need an editor that supports evaluation in source files and structural editing (working with nested forms in addition to character editing).

2025年3月31日 · This guide is a gentle introduction to the basics of Clojure and links out to other references and resources if you want more detail. These pages are intended to be read in order and may build upon material from prior pages. Each page has a few exercises provided at the bottom of the page.

2025年3月31日 · Clojure is a functional programming language. It provides the tools to avoid mutable state, provides functions as first-class objects, and emphasizes recursive iteration instead of side-effect based looping.

6 天之前 · This diagram illustrates the difference between syntax in green (the Clojure data structure produced by the Reader) and semantics in blue (how that data is understood by the Clojure runtime).

6 天之前 · Clojure has a set of useful features that together form a simple, coherent, and powerful tool. In Clojure you’ll find ideas from Lisp, ML, Haskell, and others, but the end result is unique.

6 天之前 · This tool (used by the commands clojure and clj) can download Clojure itself and other Clojure or JVM-based libraries. Any version of the Clojure CLI can download or use any version of the Clojure language itself (they are independent).

6 天之前 · Clojure models its data structures as immutable objects represented by interfaces, and otherwise does not offer its own class system. Many functions defined on few primary data structures (seq, map, vector, set).

6 天之前 · Clojure is a member of the Lisp family of languages. Many of the features of Lisp have made it into other languages, but Lisp’s approach to code-as-data and its macro system still set it apart. Clojure extends the code-as-data system beyond parenthesized lists (s-expressions) to vectors and maps.

2025年3月31日 · Functional Design in Clojure - Christoph and Nate discuss software design problems and how they might be solved using functional principles and the Clojure programming language.
