I am new to Clojure, I am currently at Beginner level. While trying to run 
small programs, I found that I can load a file having duplicate code. Let 
me explain it with example.

This is the code

(ns clojure_begins_19_08_2014.core)

(defn first-fn[x]
  (print x))

(defn first-fn[x]
  (print "Value of x with String " x))

(first-fn 10)

See, above code consists of two function with same name and with same 
number of arguments.
When I call first-fn, the function declared later gets called. I get output 
as:

Value of x with String  10
nil

So can any one explain how this thing is happening and also explain how we 
can have same function written 2 times in a same namespace.
