Re: Help a newbie with his first babysteps... Understanding a function.

Many thanks to you both Sean and Jeremy, I think I finally got it. After understanding it better I think most of my confussion comes from the fact that in F# it's typical to "pipeline" and therefore we don't have to define everything at once (specially the implicit values which are what lost m

Re: Anyone using Sublime Text 2 + SumblimeREPL with Windows?

Well, I thought I had specified in the title my problem with sending commands to SublimeREPL, but as I did it badly and wasn't so specific, I guess I can put my las "problem" in this very thread. As we know, Sublime saves the session you're in and restores it everytime you open Sublime again. T

Anyone using Sublime Text 2 + SumblimeREPL with Windows?

Hi there, My current development environment is that: Sublime Text 2 editor with the fabulous SublimeREPL plugin to be able to copy code into the Clojure REPL. As absurd as it may seem... I can't find the combination of keys to send functions or selected code to the REPL. It's supposed to be t

Thank you both! I had the epiphany now and realized it is what you both stated. But you had already answered! So quick :). I think I've tried too run too much and have read through too fast. All morning setting up Clojure and learning Clojure. It's fun but my brain may now need some rest... Th

Hi! I've just started learning Clojure today. I've started reading "Clojure - Functional Programming for the JVM" ( http://java.ociweb.com/mark/clojure/article.html ). Anyway, on the collections part ( http://java.ociweb.com/mark/cloj

ClojureScript instead of CoffeeScript for complete web app development?

Hi all, I've always developed desktop apps with the typical C/C++/C# stack and I was willing to delve into web development. I really don't like Javascript so I thought to give CoffeScript with node.js a chance, but as I love functional programming the idea of using Clojure/Clojurescript for EVE
