You must deref (https://clojuredocs.org/clojure.core/deref) reference
values to get the data inside of it.
(= @a 0)
is the same as saying
(= (deref a) 0)
Hope this helps!

To compare the value of the atom, you should deref it first. Using deref,
you’ll get the current value of the atom:
=> (deref a)
0
Or using the reader macro:
=> @a
0
So:
=> (= @a 0)
true
Hope that helps,

deref is used to pull the value out of an atom, ref, or atom (or other
reference type).
(= (deref a) 0) gives --> true
Also there is a shorthand operator:
(= @a 0)
