The Ideas of Clojure - Things I learn from Clojure
The document summarizes some of the key ideas and philosophies of the Clojure programming language as presented by Randy Lien. Some of the main points covered include: - Clojure focuses on simplicity, empowerment, and expressiveness through features like pure functions, immutability, and consistent syntax. - Clojure allows leveraging existing libraries from Java and JavaScript through its ability to run on the JVM and as ClojureScript. - The REPL-driven development model and immutable persistent data structures make Clojure well-suited for functional programming.

- 15. Philosophy - Simplicity •Pure functions • Immutable • Simple abstractions • defprotocol • deftype
- 16. Philosophy - Focus •Syntax will not bother you • Consistency • Dynamic System • Almost everything defined in Clojure can be redefined (Even while program is running) • Use Macro you can build anything you want to do
- 17. Philosophy - Empowerment •Use Java Virtual Machine • Java is mature and has many libraries • JavaScript is everywhere (ClojureScript)

- 33. functions & composition •map, reduce, filter • partial, comp • iterate • repeat, repeatedly • Many built-in functions and you don’t need to create. Just compose it!

- 36. Values should be… •Value! • operated by functions • time-relative • Immutable
- 37.
- 38.
- 39. Why mutable? • Limitationsof early computers: Small RAM and disk • New information replaces old
- 40. Why immutable? • No resourcelimitation • Persistent data structure • Record - Share the same data • Key to do functional programming • No side effect • atom is mutable
- 41.
- 42. REPL ? • Read–Eval–PrintLoop • nREPL (network REPL) • Good for doing TDD • clojure.test • ClojureScript - Browser can connect to nREPL

- 49. Summary • Clojure isa practical functional programming language • Java and JavaScript are two major languages and Clojure and ClojureScript can run on them • Using REPL in your TDD practices would be helpful • Pure functions and Immutable data structure can make your system stable and easy to reason about
- 50. Summary (cont.) • Clojurehas much better tooling and keep improving it • ClojureScript is hotter than Clojure! • Many companies are using Clojure • booking.com, Yahoo, Puppet, Walmart, twitter, heroku, nubank…etc • STM, transducer, core.asyn
