Clojure is a good language to start. The only thing is that there are more ressource for beginners in other languages.
For Racket (another Lisp), you have the very good: How to design programs. http://www.ccs.neu.edu/home/matthias/HtDP2e/ (this is the second edition, you might have to peak in the first at some points as the second is not totally finished yet, at least last time I checked.) It is free, beginner friendly and teach things properly. Should not be difficult to jump to Clojure from there. The other opportunity is the current coursera course: Functional Programming Principles in Scala, on coursera.org It teaches in Scala but most principles would apply to clojure too. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
