A proper comparison extends beyond a lines of code comparison. Clojure is a
functional language, while Java is object oriented. If you haven't seen it,
an excellent talk comparing the 2 approaches can be found here:

While these examples are good (there is also a good one in Suart Halloways
book for instance) I think it would be better to look at the difference for
a whole project. There is for instance a talk from Nokia Bristol a few
years ago (Now MixRadio) where they went from 44K LOC to 4K LOC with more

clojure: You put this in a clojure names
Dear,
In order to good understand the powerful of Clojure,
I have heard that compare to a code in java you need only few lines in
clojure.
Is that true ?
If it is the case, have you a sample of the 2 codes ?
I appreciate your help.
My Kind regards,
Thomas
