Also, you can use straight up java as well inside of loops. I, sometimes, will write a static method, dump the clojure data strcuture over to java, mutate like a crazy man, then slap it back into clojure. I find that loop recur are not as elegant as imperative styles of looping(an opinion of course). I think of recursion as a low level operation, it is a outlier in clojure where most of the time we swim in an abstraction bliss. Anyway, I find using pattern matching in conjunction with recursion makes it far more elegant... https://github.com/clojure/core.match
