Clojure, like LISPs in general, is primarily a dynamically-typed language, 
so variables/parameters don't have a type assigned to them. However, on JVM 
Clojure there are optional type hints, which constrain the type at compile 
time.

Clojure inherits the argument-passing semantics from Java. So it is 
pass-by-value, where the value passed is an object reference. In addition 
there are optimization facilities that enable the passing of 
primitive-typed values.
