Wait. If a module has dependencies, that's usually a *good* thing --- it hopefully does one thing well, and doesn't reinvent the wheel.
Also, the article online still reads, "Does it have many dependencies?" By the way, I enjoyed the article. Thanks! I liked the short pithy sentences you wrote throughout: "The JVM makes Clojure *practical*. A functional style makes Clojure *elegant*. Lisp makes Clojure *powerful*. Data as Data makes Clojure *simple*. Immutability makes Clojure programs *easy to reason about*." Oooh, looking at that list, I wonder if one about laziness is missing... -- John On Thursday, August 13, 2015 at 3:45:23 AM UTC-4, Sebastian Bensusan wrote: > > That was an error!
