Hi Sayth! This is quite an interesting question.
I would dive into the abstractions at the core of Clojure: Seq, Associative, Fn, and Deref. Having a good grasp of these will give you a nice foundation into what the language is all about. Seq https://github.com/clojure/clojure/blob/master/src/jvm/clojure/lang/ISeq.java Seqs represent sequences and they are typically accessed with `first` and `rest`. What things implement this? all collections, nil, Strings, and Iterators Used by: map, filter, reduce, doseq, for, into, etc Associative https://github.com/clojure/clojure/blob/master/src/jvm/clojure/lang/Associative.java Represents collections that have a key or index. What things implement this? maps, sets, vectors Used by: get, contains? Fn https://github.com/clojure/clojure/blob/master/src/jvm/clojure/lang/IFn.java Fn abstraction represents anything callable. What things implement this? fns, keywords, vectors, maps, vars Use by: any higher-order function Deref https://github.com/clojure/clojure/blob/master/src/jvm/clojure/lang/IDeref.java Used for deferred references (boxed pointers) to get the value pointed to. What things implement this? ref, var, atom, agent, future, delay, promise Wow, that was kind of fun.
