Although I did Lisp back at university (in the early/mid-80's), most of my career has been in C-family languages so, yes, Clojure feels like a VERY simple language with almost no syntax. Having recently read more Scheme / CL code, I can see how folks coming from those languages think Clojure is cluttered. But it's SO much simpler than the C-languages that it must surely be only a little more cluttered than Scheme / CL? Do the differences really seem that big? Genuine question, since I've been immersed in C-languages for so long... -- Sean A Corfield -- (904) 302-SEAN An Architect's View -- http://corfield.org/ World Singles, LLC. -- http://worldsingles.com/ "Perfection is the enemy of the good." -- Gustave Flaubert, French realist novelist (1821-1880) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
