Clojure is an excellent choice when you want to integrate with Java
libraries, as the interop is almost seamless. As Mike A. mentioned, writing
fast numeric algorithms in pure Clojure is tricky, although the next release
(currently 1.3.0-alpha) will make that easier, and you can always drop dow
I'm using Clojure for some reasonably heavy computational code. It's a
great fit for the problem domain.
Some specific things I really like:
- I use Incanter to get quick plots of outputs to test that
algorithms are working, very handy for interactive development at the
REPL
- I can plug in Java
Hi,
are there (problem) domains for which clojure is especially well
suited for? As an example, is it a good idea to build a mathematical
library with it? I'm planning to do computational extensive stuff with
clojure. Looks like that clojure is a good fit as I can leverage on
existing java librari
