- Think of some (smaller) project you've had on your mind for a while, and try to implement it using clojure - Read all of the incoming questions on this list, or StackOverflow if you prefer. Read the questions, and before reading the answers try to see if you can figure out the problem first, then compare your solution to the responses. As you get more confident, try answering some questions yourself. > if i have no interest in java, should a learn at least some > fundamentals? would that be helpful? It can only help, learning a little bit about Java (the language, the jvm, and the periphery) won't hurt you. Same goes for learning more about Javascript for ClojureScript, .NET for ClojureCLR, etc. On Mon, May 7, 2012 at 8:48 PM, toan <kidn...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi folks, > > I've been trying to learn clojure for a while.
