It may also be worth noting that the code in the files section of this group isn't vetted in any way. Some may be meant for real world use while other files may be examples of a problem or be in error. Just about anyone can upload a file for just about any purpose. If you're looking for example code to help you learn clojure, there are many better options. The first that comes to mind is the several wikis -- the official wikibook link from clojure.org, a tutorial wiki, a wiki attempting to show an example of every function in clojure.core, and the clojure projecteuler wiki. All of these contain working examples with specific goals, and several of them have lots of English text describing what's going on. Another good place to look is in clojure-contrib. Code submitted there goes through a minimal vetting process and is actively maintained by people who take the time to stay current on Clojure's growing feature set.
