Hello everyone! A Java programmer recently mentioned to me that if the Clojure community wants to appeal to industry programmers that they would need to provide example code comparisons, which clearly show why it is good to choose Clojure over another language. The same person gave me the following link with Java snippets that have proved useful for learners, something like a mini-cookbook: http://viralpatel.net/blogs/20-useful-java-code-snippets-for-java-developers/
When I google "Java Clojure code comparisons", nothing simple or straightforward like this comes up, so I want to translate these snippets into their Clojure equivalents and place them side by side with the Java, for comparison. I hope it will also provide a resource for Clojure programmers who want to get a better feel for Java and gain a more intuitive grasp of what goes on during interop. I'd like to cloud the task out to anyone interested in picking one snippet and posting it here. I'll then collect them, clean them up, post them and provide a link to either a blog post or github gists page. Does this appeal to anyone? If not, what succinct piece of media would you suggest for wowing the pants off a Clojure skeptic? Jesse -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
