I think a flowchart might be useful. In functional programming there is a tendency to model things as a pipeline of transformations, instead of as interactions between code modules (classes), so visualizing how your data flows from its source to its endpoint will be useful. On a larger scale you might want to map out the relationships between namespaces, which procedures deal with state, etc. Unfortunately I don't know any tools to generate call graphs and such from clojure code, but hopefully my suggestions will at least inspire a few ideas. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
