I read the part of your article (on lists and vectors) that you linked to in another thread - In the list section you show the function into and conj as applied to lists, but these can also be applied to vectors and will return vectors, (into [1 2 3] [4 5]) => [1 2 3 4 5] (conj [1 2 3] 4 5) => [

Article is a great introduction and reference to clojure. It could serve as _the_ documentation, maybe even distributed with clojure itself. I like the fact that it has "right" code to txt ratio. The only things missing is better organization (chapters hierarchy) and syntax highlight of code. Tha

2009-02-28 Thread Mark Volkmann
I've written an article on Clojure. See http://ociweb.com/jnb/jnbMar2009.html. The goal of this article is to provide a fairly comprehensive introduction to the Clojure programming language. A large number of features are covered, each in a fairly brief manner. Check out the hyperlinked table of
